I swear I'm not radfem!anon, but since you brought it up... its a little weird that you only hate FEMALE ocs. Is there a reason you don't mind male ocs?

I'm not the secret OP, but I very rarely ever see male OCs as main characters. Random side characters (the barista at Starbucks, doctor at the hospital, taxi driver, random guy on the airplane, things like that), but only very rarely do I ever see a male OC as a main character, or shipped with a canon character.

Female OCs, on the other hand, tend to show up for shipping or to be a major part of the plot, and I dislike it when there's an OC in the main part of the plot. For that reason, I dislike female OCs more often than male OCs, because most male OCs I see play very minor parts in the story.

That said, I don't mind female OCs that are minor background characters, either.

I get that but that's not really hating female OCs, then, that's hating OCs central to the plot and it just so happens that the ones you have seen were female.

The secret itself actually answers this, though it is phrased a little confusingly. OP hates female OCs because she is allergic to Mary Sues (right there with you, OP). Presumably she is also allergic to Marty Stues, but since the VAST majority of fanfic writers are female, one ends up running into a hell of a lot more female OCs who are Mary Sues than their male counterparts.
