I think the hurdles of queer love are just more interesting and fresh. You can't rely on all the gendered romance tropes of straight love, and while being of the same gender has its own tropes, they aren't as cliche by virtue of being queer.
I'm so used to seeing strong breadwinner man + submissive stay-at-home wife, it's nice seeing representation of more balanced relationships. There's just something about people being so similar to each other that makes it feel better to me. It's possible to do that with straight stories, but I've never seen it, whereas queer stories seem to default to it.
I do wish everyone got to experience that sort of relationship, regardless of gender or orientation.
I was amazed when I had my first balanced relationship. I thought my others had been balanced, until we truly were dividing up work evenly and everything just felt... different. But in a really refreshing way. It's interesting when there really are zero gender roles and you get to partake in a menagerie of chores/obligations that would be either traditional or foreign depending on your gender.
It feels very freeing. And it makes me wonder how on earth we ever started adding gender roles to various things in the first place.
