Ray Bradbury didn't consider himself a Science Fiction writer because he felt his focus was on human feelings and emotions rather than technology and science. He believed his stories were more about the impact of technology on society and individuals rather than the technology itself. Bradbury preferred the term "fantasy" to describe his work.

Where can you find space stories?

Try Ray Bradbury's stories. They may be a bit outdated in the sense that they are not what today's readers might think is science fiction like in today's movies. Harlan Ellison is also a wonderful science fiction short story writer. Otherwise try using your library's computer catalog using keywords like 'science fiction anthologies' or 'outer space short stories.'

It is a well known fact the field of science fiction is largely one dominated by men Why do you think this is?

There has been a cultural bias in most of the world that a scientific education was kind-of restricted to Young, White, Males. This bias has created a writer/reader base for science fiction. Many readers outside this grouping conversely show a contempt for science fiction. Even today a black or female sf writer is considered an uncommon thing and are usually more inclined to the soft science fiction genera. Female authors: Ursula LeGuin, James Tiptree jr (pen name), Pamela Sargent. Black authors: Samuel Delany Black Female authors: Octavia Butler.
