Also, you would be very surprised at how many female characters written by men that people think are so great and well-written and fully realized (and sometimes they are) are clearly (usually very thinly-veiled) objects of adoration for the male writer. This happens a lot in comics (Enid in Ghost World for sure)

I don't care if someone writes a character that they personally adore. Again that's beside the point.

The point is I don't believe being attracted to a gender is ever a good excuse to fill your story with that gender. Honestly whenever I come across an author who hardly ever writes female characters I'll just assume they're expressing some level of misogyny. Ladies aren't difficult or unpleasant to write unless you make it so.

I have got to ask: if someone's shtick is primarily writing m/m slash fiction (someone like me, for instance), even though there are female characters in the story despite that main three or four characters are male, would that raise any eyebrows?
