Challenge accepted. I shall dig through my AO3 bookmarks and see what I can provide. (Of course, I'm myself not into some of the big pairings such as, well, most iterations of Doctor/Master, so my ability to help the situation is limited, but still.)
Mind you, I'm not entirely against this community being less about m/m slash than fandom on average, because one of the effects of the m/m dominance of much fandom (I recently saw stats about AO3's 100 most popular pairings, and it was very slash dominated) is that there are few female characters, and I really really want female characters. Especially when they talk to one another, so I'm big into gen and femslash. ;-) But it is surprising in the fandom of today to find slash in the minority!
(I'm mostly not a het person because I hate 90 % of the relationship tropes of het romance, but Doctor Who has surprisingly many het pairings that I like - even though I'm consistently not into any of the big ones. I suppose the whole "fun and adventures for the whole family" remit of the original run of the show helps. But I shall have to dig through my femslash archives as well, even if it's not as underrepresented as male slash.)
