I don't exactly read (or watch or know anything about) any of the fandoms you've listed... but there is forever and ever a startling lack of MaleDom/femalesub fic, especially dub-con fic.
I have a real kink for dub-con, D/s where the guy has power, but it rarely if ever gets met. I've pretty much given up looking for it, even in kink memes. It doesn't really get answered.
Sometimes I get a surprise and sometimes I have to write it myself.
I wish more was written.
I don't really have anything more to add as to the *why* it isn't written more. The usual... people don't want to be seen as condoning violence against women, consensual or otherwise, it's a very tricky issue.
Also, writing sexualised fic is a very personal thing and to write MaleDome/femalesub dub-con is to declare a quite specific kink to the world, wherein a lot of fic writers (mainly women) aren't always comfortable admitting to this or showing this side of themselves. And certainly male writers would never (or rarely, I've never seen it) admit to this, for fear of being stoned into oblivion.
It's more socially acceptable to read/write incest fic than fic that "objectifies" and "brutalises" women and their right to consent. Or whatever.
Because godforbid a woman like it rough, the delicate flowers that we are.
(sorry, comment is months late, but this one slipped right past me in January... don't know how).
