Nope. A lot of het fic written by women for women can come packaged with the exact same bullshit that shows up in het stuff written by men for men, because women have internalized the exact same sexism. Have you ever read romance novels? By women, for women, and some of the most godawful misogynistic tropes you'll ever see, consistent across the entire genre. That bullshit seeps into het fanfic, too - well, less seeping, more like a fucking tsunami.

Now, now slash fic can be just as awful when it's bad (such as when one of the men is the designated "woman" and therefore gets all the crap an actual woman would get) but I think good male slash fic is, at least, is less likely to come with woman-specific baggage than good het fic. Such baggage can ruin an otherwise excellent epic for me because, as a woman, I read to get a break from that shit, not to trip over it in my escapism.

And I say that as someone who loves sexy het and despairs of how difficult it is to find any that doesn't turn into a pseudo-rape fantasy at some point. Just talking about it makes me irritable. So I guess what I'm trying to say here is, bite me.
