You may be right. Perhaps you should start a poll of genres with female/ male indicating which genre they prefer.
Looking at the stats on MR for men and women (as of right now) we have this;
Female
Taking the female total of 74 votes we have;
Prefer female authors =
.16% (12 votes)
Prefer male authors =
....4% (3 votes)
No clear gender bias =
..80% (59 votes)
Male
Taking the male total of 105 votes we have;
Prefer male authors =
....24% (25 votes)
Prefer female authors =
...4% (4 votes)
No clear gender bias =
...72% (76 votes)
