I will confess it seems a bit reminiscent of the previous spat to make the Grauniad ('Cocky-gate').
In general, most romance leaves me cold - I do read some, mostly older Regency romances (blame it on my liking for Jane Austen) from the 60s to the 80s, and more modern urban fantasies that aren't paranormal romances (necrophilia and bestiality are far too pervy for my taste).
I also find most romance plots coercive at best and borderline rape fantasy at worst, and most are badly written.
