... it's really not that hard to explain? I'm a straight woman, I'd much rather look at art of hot dudes than of women because I'm into dudes and find them attractive. It's as simple as that.

[(Anonymous)]

How come male creators have no problem drawing/writing all kinds of male characters even if they're not attracted to them?

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's pretty objectively clear that there are big differences in the way that men and women deal with all this stuff. I think it's primarily socialization but this is hardly the only big distinction between differently gendered fandom spaces.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah but then also look at how much male-created media has unnecessarily sexualized female characters. They may draw/write male characters, but they also wanna look at them titties.

[(Anonymous)]

And that's also all they want from female characters in many cases, unfortunately.

[(Anonymous)]

Sure, they have both (not equally, but still both)

[(Anonymous)]

So?
The question was why men write stories about men more than women write stories about women.

[(Anonymous)]

Comparing original media created by men to fanfiction created by women seems a bit apples and oranges. Most of the original media created by women that I can think of off the top of my head focuses on women. I have no idea if men write fanfiction about men more than women write fanfiction about women, though I know there are men who write slash fic, too.

[(Anonymous)]

I can say that I personally know a whole bunch of guys who write femslash fic for the same reasons that women write slash fic.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't totally agree with that

Like, theoretically the same reasons, I guess, but there's massive practical differences
