Writing a Story for Men

It's a well assumed fact that women read more than men.

As a remedy, I want to write the manliest book ever written. Here's the premise that I plan to give to whichever AI is on sale:

Bro McStrongface is an ex-CIA informant who is forced out of retirement when a rogue group of apache helicopters rob his gym. After beating them with his patented flying elbow, one of them says, "Martha." Knowing that Clara would want him to investigate, he follows a trail of awesome fight scenes, tits and wailing guitar music to Robo-Hitler. They arm wrestle to death in the final showdown.

I need advice on making it more manly. Please help? The last rejection letter did say I needed help.

IF YOU USE AI, YOU ARE NOT A WRITER!

At first I was offended by that. Now I think I agree... in part.

I do not use penmanship to put one word after another. But I do create. Original ideas that would not see the light of day without collaboration with AI. I craft. I plan. I shape. I cut. I guide.

It makes me think more of the role of a film director.

Am I a director? I don't think so. But what about an author?

Author comes from the Latin auctor... one who originates. One who has authority over the work.

So am I a writer? No.

But I claim my right to call myself an author. Proudly.

Edit:

Source because I'm under the impression that some people thought I was serious. lol
