Uh, what? I'm not saying that women don't write relationship stories and men don't write action. (Hell, I'm a girl and I prefer romance or friendship stories to action, a lot.) From what I've seen, I've agreed that it's a trend, and... uh, I don't know where you're going with the m/m sexual position thing, because I already KNOW that some gay men don't switch. And I don't think switching or not switching is a problem at all, as long as the roles in the story comes from who the characters are and what the author imagines they'd like, not from stereotypes about what roles gay men always have. So... I don't know where you are getting this.

What I was trying to say is that there's nothing essentially female about writing romance, or essentially male about writing action. People of all genders write all kinds of stories. Just because more women do thing A and more men do thing B doesn't mean that thing A is just for women and thing B is just for men. That kinda demeans people who do like the things that are popular with their gender ("lol, they're just being women") and tells people who don't like stuff popular with their gender that they're being a [whatever their gender is] wrong.
