That is just bizarre. I wonder what the reverse theory would be,
I mean, I started out reading gen and slash (in TS and DS), and then got "corrupted" into reading het, and these days I'll read everything, and my best queer intention to avoid the heterosexual norm are all shot to hell. Ruined I tell you. There I was as a teenager baby dyke, happily reading lesbian mystery novels with lots of gratuitous sex, valiantly avoiding all heterosexual romance stories, and then I came into online fandom, which through the intermediate step of m/m romance got me to succumb to the evil het-ickyness... And I didn't even notice any trauma, so insidious was it. *g*
