I think it depends on the story.

2.) Do you think it's weird for an author to write in the POV of his or her opposite gender? Meaning, would it be weird if I wrote a story in which a guy was the protagonist? Is it kind of freaky that the stories I like the most are the ones in which I do this? I did this for a story I wrote for my class last quarter and they told me I did it quite well. Hm.
Not wierd at all.
