Agh, even the whole 'You're reading too much into this!'. Damn, all sexism discussions are the same.
I agree with you: I hate it when 'for women'='bad writing'. Specially since many times you get things like 'It's for girls, but it's good!'. Because we have no taste whatsoever and we all like the same things.
I haven't read the books (even if I've heard about them) but 'girly' is mostly used as a derogative term and the same goes for Chick Lit.
Slightly OT anecdote: on Saturday I went to see Stardust (which I loved) and when my friends arrived (late) one of them realized that Resident Evil 3 was on too. So I said 'Yes, it is. If you had arrived ten minutes later, I'd have gone to see it.' And then he looked at me so goddamn puzzled, as if it were impossible for me to like fantasy movies and 'let's blow a zombie up!' ones.
