Most thieves think a woman alone is an easy target until they run into someone who thinks three steps ahead. She left him looking stupid in the middle of the street.
I am convinced if Harry Potter had been a girl instead of a boy, not a single boy/man would've read it.
Women read novels with male protagonists all the time. Men, on the other hand, refuse to read or watch anything with a female lead bc theyve been taught hate anything feminine
