Just trying to understand why this happens.
I’ve rarely seen male writers (who are gay) gain the same levels of superstardom writing M/M as their female counterparts.
You have more Becky Albertallis and Casey McQuistons than Adam Silveras and TJ Klunes.
Is there a particular way in which the female authors simply excel at writing M/M compared to the male authors? Is it possible that the female authors present a more idealistic fantasy (meaning more pleasing to female readers) and the male authors are more rooted in realism even if it’s a fantasy?
Do female readers specifically seek out M/M written by women and generally avoid M/M written by men?
