Madeleine L'Engle wrote A Wrinkle in Time which is a very well known kids fantasy book. Diana Wynne Jones wrote many many children's fantasy novels including Howls Moving Castle, Ursula Le Guin wrote Wizards of Earthsea which is a well known fantasy novel that many people study in High School, Anne McCaffrey wrote the dragonflight series of books that many people read as teenagers. Not on the list but should have been is Jennifer Rowe who wrote the Deltora Story series of fantasy novels for kids.
And Quora is a terrible source of information, but regardless of why JK used a pen name, that is actually irrelevant to my point. Many many other female exist, it hasn't been "a mans world" for decades. And also, most other female fantasy writers haven't felt the need to use initials to cater to "boys" and they still sold millions of copies books. In fact I find it disheartening that JK felt she needed to do that, and also that in catering to boys in this way it comes at the cost of not catering to girls.
