>>182533actually looking at it, there's also boy meets girl and with rivals to their man's love and stories that have will they won't they scenarios. Or a group of girls in a slice of life setting.
With the stuff with a male protagonist, he is either a loser nerd or bland everyman. I figure so the male reader can insert themselves in his shoes. He can either be in a will they won't they or be lusted by a group of women and this too continues will they won't they. Stuff like Cat Planet cuties, monster musume, world's end harem, rosario vampire, Chieri's love is 8 meters tall and do you like big girls? fall under this. Or stuff like Plus-size elf can have a male protagonist that is in sexy scenarios but doesn't end up with any of the women. Or loads of hints that he'll fool around with them.
The action/adventure stuff I refer to is stuff where the cast is most to all women and they go on action/adventure type stuff or are sports girls who end up in sexy scenarios. The stories like this are bikini warriors, keijo, queen's blade, kill la kill, and the seven deadly sins. Not to say all of this is bad, just that the main focus is sexy women in sexy outfits. They can vary things by having different plots and settings, like making it sci-fi, fantasy, etc.
This stuff is to ensure little to no men in sexy scenarios because the audience is straight men who want to see sexy women in sexy scenarios. Not have stuff where men are sexualized as women or women getting it on with men or men with other men. The stuff I described has girls, girls and girls and them being sexy and with some stuff of them being sexual with other girls.
I am seeing mixed responses on having men in a story. Some of us want to avoid more lesbian stuff, others hate the idea of men in a story. Perhaps this is the other reason why these stories avoid loads of men. A good chunk of the audience will complain about too much men not enough women.
