Alternative theory: teen boys/men would, on the whole, rather be caught dead than reading anything associated with (gasp) girl media. Which the twilight franchise and Stephanie Meyer is.

Once you start paying attention, you realize that the things society hates on most for no real reason is media meant for teenage girls.

Male here. This theory as it applies to erotica does not apply to me. Just not interested in reading it.
