Cynicism?


No? I read and enjoyed both of those author's books. Men and women are different in every capacity including writing. I like depth, nuance and detail, things male writers are often best at. Women are often great at things like creating fantastic characters and interesting story arcs.

I disagree with Zach that women are not good writers, they are just different than male writers. Id gander to say men often prefer works done by men and women prefer works by women.

My wife has over 1,000 copies in our home (yes, my house looks like a library). At least 90% of her books are by male authors.

Edit: Despite being highly educated and a voracious reader my wife cannot write. When she has to compose a
document she gives me her draft and I make 5 or 6 corrections per sentence.
