Re: Secrets you don't want to make...

Because there is a difference between the types of bad in the writing. Men in stuff written by women are unrealistic, but they're still human. Women in stuff written by men are barely human and often just objects.

Sure, and neither are things we'd call "great at writing men/women" I hope? If we're going with "x can't write y" then both things seem like examples of that. Objectification is a separate thing from that... and I don't think you'd need to look very far to find male characters who do nothing but smolder and sex?

Arguably, both xs aren't interested in writing ys though, I guess, cause fantasy.

Sorry, I just don't think women write men with the same level of objectification that men write women. there is some there yes, but not remotely even close to the same level. Same as in real life really. Women can objectify men, sure, but we don't see the same level of treating men as just objects.

That's a very limited view, as it reduces both men and women to your singular experience of each gender's behaviour. I would accept that a poorly written sexual object of a man written gy a woman is less likely to be accepted for publishing, but women are people too and are just as capable of reducing a fictional man to his abs and dick as men are of reducing a fictional woman to tits and ass.
