I'm not saying men can't read or write the genre but just know that 95% of it men are going to be protrayed as what women wish them to be like.

This particular woman would have to give up reading if only romance were on offer. Nor would I have any interest in the typical romantic hero. Controlling much? And that's just for starters.
