I have tits and I love the Dresden files books. Judging something prematurely due to gender seems wonky. It's like saying that someone with a penis could never appreciate the works of Jane Austen because she wrote primarily about women, so they should never give reading them a try. Not saying that said person is going to absolutely love them if they do, but it at least opens up the possibility.
The character of Harry does have a weakness when it comes to women, but unlike some other books I've read, it's a weakness that actually hurts him from time to time. It's part of his character and that character has some flaws. I tend to prefer that over the fantastic, unfaliable hero archetype.
