Don't be mistaken, the male character is just as important as the female counterpart in the world of literature and fiction writing. Just because the ladies are going first by taking the spotlight, doesn't mean the guys are backing down on the action.

Who doesn't love a good underdog? A witty comic-relief? The brute yet soft-hearted best friend? The suave smooth talker that melts your heart? The snarky prankster? The struggling teen who's finding his purpose in life? Or the classic mafia boss archetype that doesn't taking garbage from anyone?
