  “Over the past two decades, literary fiction has become a largely female pursuit,” Morris wrote. “Novels are increasingly written by women and read by women. In 2004, about half the authors on the New York Timesfiction best-seller list were women and about half men; this year, the list looks to be more than three-quarters women. According to multiple reports, women readers now account for about 80 percent of fiction sales. I see the same pattern in the creative-writing program where I’ve taught for eight years. … As Eamon Dolan, a vice president and executive editor at Simon & Schuster, told me recently, ‘the young male novelist is a rare species.’”

  This just seems like the market following demand.

  Why don’t young males buy more novels?
