More About Writing Women - for my own curiosity. :)

[ficwize]

So, my curiosity knows no bounds. I'm interested to see if my perception is skewed, admitting that my perception is based on a self-selected group of friends and communities on my flist.

So, if you don't mind answering this poll, I'd appreciate it. Also, if you want to pimp it to your flist, I'd be curious to see a large sample of answers.

Thanks!



ETA: Please assume that the "/" mark does not indicate sexual relationships unless otherwise indicated. So if you write a mixture of canon male and canon female characters, please check canon male/canon female. Thanks and sorry for any confusion!

Hmm, that's an interesting thought. I came into online fandom through Willow/Angel in BtVS, but then spent so much time in The Lost Boys, where there are pretty much two female characters with lines, so I'm pretty sure that influenced how I view my writing. Not to mention, I had to work so hard in order to write female characters, from giving non-speaking characters speaking roles to writing original female characters, so I don't really look at my fandoms as female-centric. Huh.
