that 15 of 17 are male authors.
Clearly an agenda.
I was just going to post about this when I saw that it was already
covered.

Well... one of the genre lists I found was of public
library books: eight by men, two by women, none by a
living author (if you see what I mean). So it goes.

So as of 2015, that's what people [who don't pay for
books] were reading?
It varies depending on the genre and the methodology. Checking Amazon's
"most popular authors" lists, I see that of the 10 most popular fantasy
authors 4 are men and 6 are women
(https://www.amazon.com/author-rank/Fantasy/books/16190/)
On the science fiction side, 7 are men and 3 are women
(https://www.amazon.com/author-rank/Science-Fiction/books/16272/)
In paranormal romance, 0 are men and 10 are women
(https://www.amazon.com/author-rank/Paranormal/books/13356/)
Are you saying that women are paranormal? :P
Or that men are not romantic?
That could be why all the women want to sleep with werewolves and vampires.

I'll point out that the original meaning of "romance" (from
"Rome") was a tale of adventure and derring-do, activities
usually conducted by males. Women come into these stories only
in later periods, starting out as goals to be achieved, later
developing personalities and actions of their own.
...and proto-scientifiction was known as "scientific romance."

Somehow SCIENTIFIC ROMANCE was never a title for a love comic.
It sounds like a natural.....

You've a knack for the genre. Let me lay a clown confessional on you:
All You Zombies
By Robert A. Heinlein
2217 Time Zone V (EST) 7 Nov. 1970-NTC- "Pop's Place": I was polishing
a brandy snifter when the Unmarried Mother came in. I noted the
time-10: 17 P. M. zone five, or eastern time, November 7th, 1970.
Temporal agents always notice time and date; we must.
The Unmarried Mother was a man twenty-five years old, no taller than I
am, childish features and a touchy temper. I didn't like his looks - I
never had - but he was a lad I was here to recruit, he was my boy. I
gave him my best barkeep's smile.
Maybe I'm too critical. He wasn't swish; his nickname came from what
he always said when some nosy type asked him his line: "I'm an
unmarried mother. -- If he felt less than murderous he would add: "at
four cents a word. I write confession stories. -- ...
