[[folder: Web Original]]

In fiction, only women write [[FanFic fan fiction]], and the majority of these are teenagers. In addition, their work tends to contain [[{{Pun}} boatloads]] of {{Shipping}} and IkeaErotica.

!! Examples

* Aeris from ''Webcomic/VGCats'' writes erotic fanfiction about [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyX Tidus and Auron]], has dreams about [[VideoGame/StarFox Fox and Falco]], and likes the idea of a [[VideoGame/Left4Dead hot molotov throbbing in Bill's hand]].

'''Franchise/SpiderMan:''' Sorry, we're not allowed to accept unsolicited material.

* Subverted in ''Fanfic/MyHuntsmanAcademia''. Izuku admits to writing Toshinori fanfiction when he was younger. Practically all of it is embarrassingly bad embellishment of Toshinori's adventures or indulgent SelfInsertFic because of his Brokenness. In the non-canon sidestory, "Spectacular What?", the rest of Team MNVW comes across him writing a story on [[BlandNameProduct GalaxySkirmishes]] about a powerless boy who suddenly gained powers and became a hero. They all immediately accuse of him of writing another SelfInsertFic until he shows him his notes and outlines, which reveal that the title of his story is [[Franchise/SpiderMan "The Spectacular Spider-Man"]].

** In ''Webcomic/{{Shortpacked}}'', Amber writes a WebSerialNovel that is a pastiche of ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''.

* ''Literature/StrangerThanFanfiction'': Moriko "Mo" Ishikawa is a girl who likes to write stories centered around the Peachfuzzle ship (Dr. BumfuzzlexDr. Peachtree). She plans to, upon becoming a legit writer, change the characters and publish the stories as her own.

* Erika from ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'' openly discusses writing SlashFics about her friends. She also ships [[FoeYayShipping Izaya/Shizuo]].
* Tsuruko, a CanonForeigner in ''LightNovel/NyarukoCrawlingWithLove'''s second season, wrote a {{Yaoi}} {{Doujinshi}} about the series' male lead, Mahiro Yasaka. Her #1 ambition is to meet him face-to-face, blissfully unaware that he was utterly pissed when he found out about the Doujin and in fact [[KillItWithFire bought a copy just to burn it]] (and keep it out of [[LovableSexManiac Nyarko's]] hands).

* Statistically, there are more female doujinshi creators than male, even among the ones who make porn. Comiket has always had a massive female attendance, and even some of the biggest names in eroge writing (ex: Tori, writer of the majority of the Rance series) are women.

* [[PunnyName Harumi Fujiyoshi]] of ''Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei'' draws {{Doujinshi}} as well -- one of them about her Teacher [[Creator/HiroshiKamiya Itoshiki-sensei]]. As well as a pairing of Apple × Pine when everyone else likes [[{{Pun}} Pine × Apple]] (the characters in question are [[{{Expy}} expies]] of [[Anime/YesPrettyCure5 Coco and Nuts]]). In the third series she is seen drawing a {{Doujinshi}} starring ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'''s [[ActorAllusion Tieria]] (also voiced by Creator/HiroshiKamiya).

* Due to time-travel shenanigans, the first human novel ever written in the Star Trek universe is a Captain Proton fanfic created by Lieutenant Veronica Fletcher of the starship Colombia, as per ''Literature/StarTrekDestiny''.

* In ''Series/{{Degrassi}}: The Next Generation'', Clare starts writing fanfics based on a fictional vampire book series called Fortnight.

* In ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'', Amy is revealed to write ''Series/LittleHouseOnThePrairie'' fanfiction about [[SelfInsertFic a girl named Amelia]] who falls in love with a time-travelling physicist named Cooper. [[AvertedTrope Likewise]], is revealed that Sheldon used to write Star Trek fanfiction with him self-inserting with a GaryStu SelfInsertFic when he was a kid in order to escape his real problems.

* In ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar'', resident ShipperOnDeck Karen draws her own doujinshi about Kaguya and Shirogane.

* One of the people that Luz meets in the pilot episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' was a woman who liked writing romantic fanfiction about anthropomorphic food. Luz herself is also implied to have written fanfics about her favorite book series, ''The Good Witch Azura''.

* [[PunnyName Harumi Fujiyoshi]] of ''Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei'' draws {{Doujinshi}} as well -- one of them about her Teacher [[Creator/HiroshiKamiya Itoshiki-sensei]]. As well as a pairing of Apple × Pine when everyone else likes [[IncrediblyLamePun Pine × Apple]] (the characters in question are [[{{Expy}} expies]] of [[Anime/YesPrettyCure5 Coco and Nuts]]). In the third series she is seen drawing a {{Doujinshi}} starring ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'''s [[ActorAllusion Tieria]] (also voiced by Creator/HiroshiKamiya).

* Donut of ''Machinima/RedVsBlue'' mentions writing some ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' fanfiction but [[AmbiguouslyGay well...]]

* In ''[[VideoGame/EpicBattleFantasy Epic Battle Fantasy 5]]'', Natalie tells the party that the reason she's hanging around with with them was because she got caught writing smutty fan fics of real people, much to her embarrassment, leading her to leave the university. She then says to herself that she just hides it better now.

* The new ''[[ComicBook/MsMarvel2014 Ms. Marvel]]'', Kamala Khan, writes ''Avengers'' and ''X-Men'' fanfics. Specifically, about the Avengers' adventures on "Planet Unicorn", and Wolverine's and Storm's in space (where they fight worm hole farting monsters for example).

* In ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'', the female [[spoiler:Cherub]] Calliope ([=UranianUmbra=]) admits to writing fanfic about the Alpha Kids.

* In ''[[VideoGame/EpicBattleFantasy Epic Battle Fantasy 5]]'', Natalie tells the party that the reason she's hanging around with with them was because she got caught writing smutty fan fics of real people, much to her embarrassment, leading her to leave the university. She then says to herself that she just hides it better now.

* In the ''VideoGame/FableIII'' side quest, ''The Pen is Mightier'', one of the books is entitled ''The Pangs of Sunset''. It is essentially just an [[RomanceNovel erotic novel]] featuring the Heros from the ''previous'' game. It is implied to contain both [[GuyOnGuyIsHot Slash]] and [[GirlOnGirlIsHot Femslash]] and is written by a woman named Ilona Pureheart.

Various theories abound as to why this trope has persisted so prominently, such as the idea that men prefer visual porn while women prefer written porn. Maybe it is simply that reading prose fiction is a more common pastime for women: [[http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=14175229 men account for only 20% of the fiction market]], and similarly, [[https://www.theguardian.com/books/2016/jan/27/us-study-finds-publishing-is-overwhelmingly-white-and-female nearly 80% of publishing industry staff are female]]. It's simply that [[https://www.theguardian.com/books/2011/feb/04/research-male-writers-dominate-books-world books written by men get far more media coverage]], leading to the distorted perception that the industry is not as female-dominated as it actually is.
