What/why is it that people select books solely for these criteria?
Must have Male Villon and Female hero (or the flip)
Must be Adults only main characters.
Only books with Blue Fish
or any other 'only' criteria

I don't think in all the years I have been reading of ever (not) selecting a book because the Hero was Female, The Author was Female, the publisher was not one of the big 5.
I do tend to buy Genere (SF or Fantasy)

I do understand certain 'Avoids' that violate religion or moral beliefs

But WHY so rigid a selection criteria?
