There is a difference here though. No-one criticises a girl if she gets a meat feast pizza but there is a certain social stigma to do with women and horror, especially violent, gory, sexual horror. Women are expected to dislike it or at least be the terrified, squealing girl clinging onto her man's arm. The question is not really whether biological gender affects taste in horror cinema but whether the way society expects you to perform within your gender affects the way you behave and your tastes.
