It's the same reason why many female-targeted books will have very muscular, shirtless men or dangerous iconography associated with risk or taboo - it appeals to a fantasy and makes potential readers more likely to pick it up. The juxtaposition of romantic, fantastical clothing and a dangerous setting is exciting.

...I've worked in libraries part time for like 4 years now, so that's what I'm told at least :shrugs:

Very much a dude.
So we have a museum over here with a T-Rex skeleton. My sister asked me if I could take picture which I did. I thought the whole museum was dedicated to dinosaurs but I was wrong. I also saw the skeleton of a giant whale so 2 for the price of 1 :D
I love dinosaurs and paleontology. One of my obsessions along with music.
