I am staying out of the discussion because I'm... already past the point of not writing (less-represented subsets of) the stories I want to read. I do have sympathy for people in that position (it wasn't that long ago when I was only writing white male slash pairings and couldn't get out of the mainstream-dominated headspace, and those pairings are still the vast majority of Things I Have Written Ever), but right now I'm in a place/have made a space where I can have just about everything I want, including the discussions. For me it's just a matter of prioritizing my output, and while I don't think I have any useful advice as to how to get here, I will say that it is an awesome place to be.
