At first I was a bit surprised/intrigued at the strength of the sub-genre... then I thought, cruk, this is the Internet, after all.
I think it can be about any number of things. I've seen examples that were definitely about humiliating and/or taking revenge on men. I actually thing some of these ended up saying just as much 'for' the author's opinion of women, regardless of their gender (the author's, that is).
On the other hand there are tales that might even be described as sensitive, as a man Truly Comes To Understand(tm) what bearing a child is all about.
The slash? I guess there someone just thinks, Hey, if a woman can get pregnant by having sex with a man, then why not... Though strangely, I haven't seen any (fan)fiction online where two women getting intimate results in conception. (Doesn't that make as much (or as little, really) sense as the other?)
Or maybe some writers are just all, 'Man getting knocked up? Hey, tha's funny!' :)
