Do you think most thriller/mystery/suspense authors are more comfortable of writing about main characters of the same sex?

The examples are endless. Harlan Coben wrote the “Myron Bolitar” book series, which is a man. Mary Kubica wrote “The Good Girl”, which title speaks for itself. Alex Michaelides wrote “A Silent Patient”, which has as protagonist a male doctor. Lyndee Walker wrote the “Faith McClellan” & “Nichelle Clark” book series, two series with as MC a woman. I’m going with my guts on this one, but to me it’s a widespread trend. What do you think about it?
