This. And same here. It's very common, I'm guessing ayrt doesn't have a lot of experience with media or fandoms where this isn't a rarity - or some evil conspiracy by creepy men.

the anon you're talking about.

I figured first of all that OP was older as many individuals on F!S have admitted themselves to be, and that since OP was talking about books from their youth, there would be a significant buffer by way of stigma, since I assumed those book could have even possibly come out years before they were referred to OP in their ageless youth.
I'm sorry that you're so quick on the defensive about your writing habits, but my comment was more about the sexism of the past, where men still had the major hold over the publication of any such media. Even if it was a woman who'd authored such a work, it'd only be approved by such a slimy bastard that approved of such a topic.

You might not have noticed, but a lot has changed over that last handful of decades. Where as older published material isn't exactly held in the exact same regard as whatever new headcanon you posted on tumbler for an extra follow or two, and, y'know nor should it be.

DA wait, so, your thinking is that a woman could write it for any number of reasons, but then the "fault" lies solely on a hypothetical slimy male editor/publisher who singlehandedly selects books with this popular female fantasy for his own ends?

For an example, you think Tamora Pierce's Daine quartet was a man's doing?
