This is my first contribution to this group since a long time, and unfortunately, it is in French only, but I thought it would be interesting nonetheless, since it is the website of a French mag devoted to Boy's Love.

"Ten years ago, the first SGMS had to be delayed because of the tragic event of
9/11, but two months later, seven academics from a variety of disciplines spoke
on manga and anime to a crowd of 150 eager fans, academics, and students from
junior high to college-aged. Since then, on the last weekend of every September,
the expanding community of SGMS artists, actors, teachers, and students have
gotten together to celebrate manga, anime and Japanese popular culture.
