    Eh. Well. Isn't that more or less the consequence of a male POV? If you've got a pretty narrow POV, i.e. first person stuff like Dresden, the POV character usually gets defined through his actions; and he will notice the physical traits of female characters, because well, that's natural.

    I'd postulate that it'd be reversed or at least noticeably less pronounced if the main POV was female.

    I think it depends on the author's gender, really.

    In any case, Sesc, you oughta get off your ass and continue writing Sister, Mine. I'll bribe you with cookies. Promise.

    My thoughts on the matter are that a good FemHarry fic is possible but hard to do and can only be done by a good author. I like the idea of in an alternate universe, Harry might have been born a girl and am interested to see how this change alters her life from that of canon. I also realize that unless she is a lesbian, femHarry will be attracted to guys, so this I have no problem with as long as femHarry was born a girl and not turned into one. I would definitely read a femHarry fanfic if it was good and well done.
