Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

you're pretty much looking at the sample size of people who read your writing

You make the worst sociologist ever, OP. Your secret itself has so many assumptions I don't know where to start, but let's begin with just the one, where "gross" is the problem some people have with het and not such things as fundamental problems of characterization, style and theme. You have it exactly backwards there: it's not my misogyny but the constant sexism that turns me off from het. Most het I've ever read inherits the cultural stereotypes of the society and media it's based on, and those are the very sexism and gender stereotypes that I'm in fandom to escape from. So no, I don't read het. And even if you write the kind of het that's stripped of those stereotypes and gender roles, I'm not surprised your sample size made you come here to trumpet you'd found some harsh truth.

Guess what? You haven't. Because there are myriad reasons why XYX people aren't reading your het. I once did a "sex scenes survey" at a panel at a single fandom con, and there were so many differences in the way people said they enjoyed fanfic sex that my series of questions couldn't even find a trend in a single *person*, let alone a shared trend across fandom. You're out of your gourd if you think you've found a definitive reason for why XYZ people aren't reading your het sex stories.

The reasons are many and complex. Which is true for a lot of things in fandom. It can't be solved by "you don't like your own pussy."
