Talk:Women's fiction

[Untitled]
The term "women writers" redirects to "women's fiction". This is wrong. "Women's fiction" is a term that supposes the audience, not the creator. --lquilter 13:24, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Sub genres
Could anyone expand on "other sub genres"? Robina Fox (talk) 20:27, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Women's Fiction Writers' Association
I don't know if this deserves a page, but since Romance Writers of America has one, it probably does. I haven't the expertise to write more than the barest stub, so who'll take up the challenge? Chrismorey (talk) 05:57, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

Validity of the Term
I've heard (but can't provide a referenced source for) criticism that 'Women's Fiction' is an inappropriate name for a genre which is (a) not exclusively read by women - though they may be the main audience, as is true of much modern fiction (b) has demeaning overtones, like 'chick-flick'. In kicking this around with other writers, we considered that more accurate terms would include bildungsroman or coming-of-age, though neither is perfect.

Is this therefore really a high-importance entry that requires amplification? Chrismorey (talk) 11:47, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
