I can't remember the last time I wrote a fic about a non-genderswitched male character. (Wait, no. Yes I do. It never got finished.) I mean, I'm pretty sure I wrote about dudes at some point. I even vaguely remember trying to write a Harry Potter fic that was actually about Harry. But as far as I can recall, I've never finished a fic that had a main male character. And this does not look like it's going to change anytime soon.
I guess I just find women easier to write about?
Also, I'm wondering about the logistics of writing for a nonexistent fandom. Like, there is no one around anymore who actually cares about D.N. Angel. And the people who might care about it definitely don't care about the hi-we're-the-love-interests-who-show-up-once-in-a-while-to-remind-you-that-Satoshi-and-Daisuke-aren't-actually-banging Harada twins. I'm not sure I shouldn't just keep this Risa-as-the-Kaitou-Dark fic in my head -- or, failing that, in first-draft form -- so I can keep this awesome idea forever without getting discouraged by my own bad writing and the total lack of interest in this kind of thing.
. . . of course, this is not stopping me from wanting to write about the Adventures of Yamamoto's and Hibari's Mothers. Or Five Things About Sawada Nana. Or something. I JUST WANT TO WRITE FIC ABOUT THE KHR MOMS OKAY.
