Re: Why do people gender fantasies?

[thewakokid]

Oh, no, I get that there are many many placed where something being declared "Female" denotes a lesser version. "It's a game with a female character - It's just for Girl gamers, we don't need to care about it" is totally an attitude I've seen. Point I'm making is that if a game or movie or what-have-you is openly declared female, it could mean it's a bad thing, or it could be a statement of empowerment, if a thing is openly declared "Male" that universally denotes a bad thing.

Part of that is because a lot of work focusing on men doesn't really get described as such outside of criticism. Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Miller, and James are great American novelists rather than great male American novelists. Fiction produced by men defaults to literary fiction. Fiction produced by women defaults to chic lit or feminist literature unless it's exceptionally well received by critics. That's true for Hollywood cinema as well. Westerns are just westerns and superhero films are just superhero films, even if both genres are more than 90% a sausage fest in casting and production.

As a result. "men's entertainment," in American mass media has long been a euphemism for porn, sex work, and related art since one way that Hefner danced around censorship was by publishing Pulitzer caliber work.
