Why m:m slash? Probably simply because most fanfic, and virtually all
adult
fic, is written by women, who aren't on the whole terribly interested in other women
Not quite sure what you mean by "terribly interested in other women." Do
you
mean that these women are not interested in sex with other women (and for some reason this turns them off reading about heterosexual sex), or that they don't want to think of their beloved in bed with another woman than them?
Quite possibly one or the other for many, and in at least some cases both. People with bisexual partners can find it less threatening if their other half has a same-sex fling - I've heard that reported for both men and women. And if I was into writing racy adult stuff then I'd be happier pairing Cally off with Jenna or an ocf.
