actual queer manga recommendations

i've read a few series (go for it nakamura, given, sasaki to miyano, the guy she was interested in wasn't a guy) and i'd like to expand my list

i'm fine with literally any genre/plot i just want genuine queer romance over subtext/implied stuff

discouraged after a year on T and minimal changes, what can i do?

(i didn't know what flair to use sorry if it's wrong)

i've been on T for a year now, started on gel and switched to shots in april. on gel i got up to 3 pumps a day, i'm now at .2mL a week for the injections.

the only changes i have are increased body hair (no facial hair) and a slightly lower voice (just deeper feminine, nowhere near a male voice).

i know it can take a while but at this point i'm starting to feel like something is going wrong somehow. my next check-in is in about a month and i'll be getting my levels done then. my last levels were done in april when i switched and they were 330. it just feels really low for having been on what i assume is an average dose.

is there anything i can do besides waiting and seeing if i can up my dose again at my next appointment?

do these ears look symmetrical?

i feel like i've been going insane trying to get the ears on this guy to look good 😭
are they noticeably uneven or will most of the issues be fixed once there's fur? i'm mostly worried about the direct head-on view (second picture)

why does my base look so off?

Hi!! This is the second base I'm making, and I'm struggling a lot more with this one for some reason. I like the style of the first one I made (the second and third pictures) and I don't know why this one (first picture) looks so weird. Any advice would be really helpful, thank you!

Also, for reference, the first base is a fox and the one I'm currently making is a wolf/cat hybrid.

is this septum jewelry too small?

i'm planning to pierce my septum and i've got everything i need except the jewelry itself. i ordered this and it arrived today, but it just seems tiny compared to what i've seen? is that an issue?
(it's a 16g implant-grade titanium, and i have balls to screw on in place of the spikes while it's healing)

any critiques?

(sorry about the mess in the bg)

the character im making is an arctic fox!
the biggest things im worried about are if the eyebrow ridge is too tall, if the cheeks are too thin, and if the eyes are at a weird angle

the left side is still unshaved obviously, and the nose isn't glued on yet! thank you for any advice!!

it seems so pointless. the only thing that even slightly works is an actual binder and i can barely breathe in them, and i can't even do anything active at all without risking permanent damage. tape doesn't work, ive tried, my chest is too big for it to look like anything other than a push-up. i'm just so tired. i want to be able to swim shirtless and exercise and just walk around and not have to worry about whether or not people can tell im wearing a binder or how long it's been on. it's so exhausting.
