Re: less of a rant and more of a strange ramble

Maybe one of the reasons that you see so many works with male MCs and works with lots of male characters (one not all of course) is that the past era of overzealous Mary Sue accusations made some people online at the time reluctant to try female characters.

You vastly overestimate the importance of fandom and vastly underestimate the influence of sexism.

I said one of the reasons. One

I have read articles by women writers as the term really picked up, talking about being afraid to write female characters?

Maybe it's not all about the writers being stupid sexist meanies who hate women and people who are afraid to write women in away that will get them mocked or accused of bad writing? I don't think that's a ridiculous idea.
