Some women are very guilty of making their male characters bisexual or gay and then pulling it off in as cringe-worthy a fashion as the men portraying wish-fulfillment lesbians. Or they'll consider a male character to only be masculine if they're super muscular, violent and stupid.I agree that it's also very important for women playing male characters to attempt to understand the social context of masculine gender roles in writing their character as well.
