What. But if you're making something up you can literally just remove the sexism and societal baggage because that's what writing allows you to do. Like this comment only makes sense if all of your m/m stuff is steeped with societal homophobic issues in the narrative, because gay men still suffer from that irl so you gotta put that in every m/m fic right? Especially if it's anything period-based.

Every single moment of my day has pressure on in some regard. Have to wear heels and make up for the office. Have to be a perfect employee because i'm also a parent and get judged very differently from the men in my office. Get home have to be as good a mother as I can in the short amount of time I get. Do some exercise somewhere because my increased weight led to my sexist pig of a boss giving me less good assignments. 

Basically, it may be possible but it's currently so far outside of my realm of experience that all I end up feeling is envy of my own characters. 

I don’t live a man's life, and it's a case of the grass seems infinitely more green on the other side.

That would not feel comfortable to me. I wouldn't enjoy it. It's cool that some people do that and enjoy it, but I don't. The fantasy of a sexism-free society isn't soothing to me because it almost always feels paper thin and false.

So instead, you just write only men and women are weak and unable to do anything ever but be support roles?

Nah. I write what ever the fuck I want. Most slash, with strong af supporting characters, including strong af supporting female characters.

And if you have a problem with that, go fuck yourself. :)
