Agreed. It\\\'s basically a roll of the eyes and a knowing, weary sigh, pretending to be a trope. The entire point of the page, starting with the quote at the top, seems to be that male writers are geeky pervs who only write to a) get fictional revenge on women who didn\\\'t date them in high school or b) to indulge their fantasies of dating said women, while female writers only care about shipping. There\\\'s about one line put there to note that there are \\\"exceptions,\\\" as if the above were the accepted norm -- or remotely true. How has this page not been given the axe yet? UnfortunateImplications doesn\\\'t even cover the half of it.

EDIT: Another thing I\\\'ve noticed -- a lot of the examples on pages that are supposedly prevalent because MostWritersAreMale are written by women.
