Like. At the risk of recapitulating the entire last 10 years of discussing social justice issues in fandom, all I can really say is that I don't believe that accounts for the difference. Maybe some of it. But it's not like we're just talking about writers. You can also get a general sense of how many people ship stuff, and how popular the stories that do get written are, and all of those things. And the patterns hold up there.

I don't know. I mean, there's a lot of reasons why stuff happens, I'm not going to pretend it's simple, but I am very convinced that race is one significant element in that. I think probably people go too far in complaining about "white cock" but I also think it probably exists.

DA

I don't know how much this means, but as, for example, a non-black POC, I am less likely to write a real life black POC character because I know personally exactly what it's like when people write my race or culture and get it wrong, and don't want to inflict that on others by writing anything serious about something I'm sure I don't entirely get.

White is easy. Everyone gets white.
