If your story has only 1 female character in it, your story sucks. If your story revolves around your female character being “not like other girls”, your story sucks. If every male character adores your female character but all other female characters (if you even have any other named female characters) hate her, your story sucks. If the only other female characters besides your main female character are ALL villians, if the only female good guy in your entire narrative is your main female character, your story sucks. If the only children your main character ever has are sons and she’s so happy she didn’t have daughters, your story sucks. If your female character in your sausage fest of a story, after having several sons, has 1 token daughter that she clearly loves less and pays less attention to than her sons, your story sucks.
If you are a female writer doing this, professional or amateur, please, please, PLEASE get some therapy for your massive case of internalized misogyny. Because your hatred of other women (and probably deep down, yourself) is really showing and it’s both sad and extremely fucking annoying.
