Notes:

As a note, social justice is not a fandom. Tumblr itself is not a fandom.

Reason 1, characters: There are fewer female characters. Not saying anything about quality, because fans latch on to all kinds of characters, but if, say, you like a pairing of a tough, no-nonsense action hero-type and an aggressively intelligent scientist-type, there are literally hundreds of canons where this pairing shows up with two male characters, and a smaller number with a male and a female character. Almost none with two female characters. Shows with lots of female characters have lots of femslash: Orphan Black, Harry Potter, Once Upon a Time, Grey's Anatomy. Even fandoms where you have only a few characters but the women drive the plot, you get lots of femslash: Star Trek Voyager, The Devil Wears Prada.

Reason 2, porn: Numerically, there are a lot more women in fandom than men. Numerically, a lot more people are straight than bisexual or gay. So even if a good number of the straight women like femslash too, and even if the number of queer women is higher in fandom than in the general population, you're still going to get more focus on men, or women with men.
