I was trying to figure out what annoyed me about this article about Warehouse 13 (which, admittedly, I've never seen) (also: SPOILERS) and then I figured out it's directly related to this awesome graph, and that is: the article suggests that the reason women don't watch a lot of science fiction shows is because of the subject matter, ie. space and spaceships and aliens (or that there's something wrong with them if they do.) Really, what's wrong with those shows is that they're such male universes, populated by men who interact with other men, wherein women are defined entirely by their relationships with said men. How can we relate to something we're not even a part of? You need to change who you're writing in order to change who you're writing for.
