Women Writing Science Fiction as Men is a 2003 anthology edited by Mike Resnick.

It was one of two works that reversed gender of author and protagonist (Women Writing Science Fiction as Men and Men Writing Science Fiction as Women).

The premise was for women sf writers to write a story "not about a man's actions, not using him as a main character, but as a man"; that "each story had to be told in the first person of a man; and second, if changing the narrator from Victor to Victoria didn't invalidate the story we didn't want it." -- from Resnick's Introduction.
