As a writer I write what the story wants. I've written things from the viewpoint of submissives, from the viewpoints of dominants, from the viewpoints of mundanes. I've written the viewpoints of murderers and suicides and lovers and ambitious men and women, whores and saints and people who were a little of both.

I want to read good work. I don't care what the orientation is.

Thanks for your respsones. I haven't logged on since I first posted the question so I apologize for my late response. As always on this forum, the responses are helpful and well thought out. I mostly write femdom erotica. My writing usually focuses on the male sub point of view, but does often switch back and forth between the Sub POV and the dominant POV. The dominant POV is harder for me to write because I am naturally submissive. I have found that my most popular stories are the ones where I spend a lot of time writing about the emotions the characters are feeling. I think this pulls the reader into the story and makes him/her personally relate to the story.

I like erotica a lot, but I have to admit that I find some of the online stories a little unpleasant. The stuff where somebody gets forced or tricked into a role they don't really want anything to do with, then finally decides that it suits them after they've been abused, conditioned or surgically modified enough that they're no longer really capable of doing anything else can leave a pretty nasty taste in the mouth. (It's possibly OT, but I did find that I was able to write a very nasty horror story using exactly the same plot form as turns up in most of the "reluctant ponygirl/boy accepting their lot" in circulation.) Maybe it wouldn't strike me this way if coercion and blackmail were two of my kinks? I always feel a bit guilty whenever I find one of these stories arousing...

To answer the question, in my opinion, a story told from the woman's perspective is hottest in general. I have written a bunch of stories on Literotica.com under my authorname Strongmasater07. And of the handful of compliments I got, the ones that meant the most to me were the ones from women, particularly from lesbians (or someone claiming to be a lesbian). I felt it had done well if my descriptions of the woman's sensations of pleasure seemed genuine to a woman who isn't turned on by the male perspective. Does that make any sense?

I know what men think. Women are my interest. the unknown.
