Throwing the Hindu fandom some bones of my choice before I come back and go gently rabid about them:
Mohini/Lakshmi
Rukmini/Satyabhama
Kalingasena/Somaprabha (go if you haven't read of them from Kathasaritsagar, you'll not have to bemoan not having ancient Indian wlw romances anymore)
Bhagiratha's unnamed (?) mothers from Krittivasi Ramayana
And others I can't recall right now (I've an exam, sorry)!
lets make this the year of yuri
