I expect most MobileRead members read books by both male and female authors and would agree that there have been plenty of good (and bad!) books written by both men and women.

Indeed.
Personally I don't care if a book is written by a man or a woman. I _do_ care and dislike it when female authors (or any other profession for that matter) are pushed and/or over-represented at the expense of men in the name of 'compensating for the past' and 'equalization.' The reason I dislike it, is that there are very few movements that do the same for men in female dominated professions. That is a whole different topic, however.
