WestBay, XD ! Truly.
At one of the anime cons, late in the evening, after underage attendees are away, they have held a panel, which I believe is the most successful panel discussion of the weekend. I don't recall the euphemistic title of the event, but it is, in fact, about the love of all things male-male love.
Yes, there we all are, literally about 200 women and 5 guys, sharing how we first discovered our interest, what sort of material we like best, women whipping out hundreds of dollars worth of doujinshi, anime DVD's, and the like, editorializing on fanfiction and original fiction of the genre, on and on. Some of it's romantic, some of it's explicit, most of it includes a seme/uke component and an insistence upon some sort of emotional content, characters, and a story. Gay BDSM porn, for girls. It's a strange and subtle world, isn't it?

Slightly Off Topic, but yes, I've had a very similar experience myself. I write Slash (Fan) Fiction based on a TV show called 'Moonlight'. The Fandom is primarily female, and when I first started posting/publishing my stuff to the different fan communities it confused the hell out of a lot of people. They had assumed I was a girl, and then they couldn't work out if I was actually a guy or not. I got a lot of messages along the lines of 'Umm, excuse me, are you male or female' or 'Wow, I thought you were a girl, are you really a guy?'
(just for the record, I'm female). [:)]
I love that both responses to my post mention fanfiction. I almost want to put my hands up and yell "busted!", because as it happens, it was a fanfiction group. ( And yeah, I'm pretty sure I might have been the only guy there. [:D] )
Though I'm straying a little off-topic, a woman who wrote gay BDSM fanfic on one of these groups actually became a close friend, and helped me through coming out of the closet and through my first steps into real time BDSM ( she was involved in a real-time hetrosexual D/s relationship herself ).
Women don't just consume gay porn, a few write some of the most kinky and imaginative gay BDSM-themed literature out there. MadameMarque's point about storyline, characters, and emotional content is something that I find makes a lot of female-written slashfic and erotica more appealing than the gay-guy equivalents for me ( which tend to be mostly bump and grind ).
