Don't blame women because you're too stupid to be in the right part of the internet.

This.
Fanfiction itself always seemed romance-dominated to me. Fighting really doesn't lend itself too well to words.

[paperclipchains.livejournal.com]

Words are suited for plenty of things beyond romance, though.

[sailor-escapism.livejournal.com]

I never said they weren't. But the OP is talking about there being few fighting fanfics versus romance fics, which is a huge no-brainer to me.

I also think romance is one of the easier things to write, so that's probably why such a huge percentage of fanfic is romance.

[gethenian.livejournal.com]

Actually, I don't think the point was romance vs. fighting so much as romance vs. anything else. Romance is easy to write -- for women. You don't see (as) many men doing it. It depends on the fandom, of course, but usually you have to wade through mounds and mounds of romance/angst to find anything else, much less anything else that isn't utter shit.

Hahahahahaha

No.


You don't see as many men do it because they write under female psuedonyms, because it's n ot manly to write romance.

This too. I'd be curious to know how many authors were actually male that OP just assumed were women because the fics were romantic.

[sosaith.livejournal.com]

I'm thrilled when I find out a writer I love is male. And, some of them write some really awesome romance or really hot sex, het and slash.

[sailor-escapism.livejournal.com]

That's kind of true for anything, though. Most people are not talented, whether it's writing, art, whatever. And there was never a time, as far as I can recall, that fanfiction wasn't mostly about the romance, so I don't think women popped up suddenly and ruined everything.
