Romance novels are dead. I think they died with 50 Shades. I used to see women reading it in public a lot. Whoever is reading those novels on Amazon now are probably married and older women.
Women these days watch real porn, just like what men do. Every girl I am with tells me she does, often, probably daily.
You can't discount the power of the written word, but I think we are at the dawn of a new era where women will watch porn as much as men.
