Shoujo?  There are what, maybe two or three shoujo anime this season?  Maybe a couple more if you're very loose with your definition of shoujo?  The overwhelming majority of anime this season, as with pretty much every season, is targeted at guys.  Why would you have a problem with the few shoujo that do get made into anime?  I don't really understand.

Not sure if he's doing it himself...but I've noticed a lot of people confuse shounen/shoujo as genres rather than demographics. Shounen romance in particular seems to get referred to as shoujo a lot....I've even seen stuff published in Jump get referred to as shoujo somehow. It does seem like there's a lot more anime of the former variety than the latter.

Again though...not sure if that's the mistake he's making or not. Just an observation of mine...
