(No, there will never be a main character just like me. Most of the time I think that's normal, and then I look at, say, SF and think standard-issue straight white guys must have a whole different experience on this issue. How weird would it be, to have basically all mainstream media written for you like that?)
I remember hearing on the radio about a study that found that many young male readers will not read a book where the protagonist is not a guy, and the people talking about the study were wondering what made girls different; I wanted to shout at them that the only difference was that girls did not have that luxury. Argh.


(I can't promise to stop writing my Ranger/Steph/Morelli OT3, though, because someone has got to fix that shit, and apparently I can't help myself.)
OMG, I could look for fanfic. I never thought of that before.
