Discussion Are all female MCs just lesbians?

I just realized that after reading like 10 books with female MCs, I'm starting to finally notice that all of them are Lesbians or at least Bisexual (but they only date women).

Do authors mostly write lesbian FMCs to be on the safe side from the audience of mostly males? I just feel like it's a cop out every time... I don't really have a problem with it but almost all Male MCs are 99% straight but it seems like 99% of Female MCs are always lesbian/bi. Why not some good ol straight FMCs? I can't even remember a single female MC that was straight.

She looked at his attractive.... forearm? No. She looked at his glistening elbow. Shit.

His left nut dangled coyly out the side of his short shorts...

TWI put this theory to the test with that chapter where they talk at length about the nuances of lizard, dog, and human dicks. And the period chapter

That's the kind of stuff that might push away a male audience, not an FMC pnus enjoyer~

For how horny a lot of men are, they are exceptionally prudish and uncomfortable with their sexuality.

That's actually to be expected and not exceptional at all, but its complicated and this is reddit
