Can I just point out that you can have a gothic romance without a male!!! If anyone has read any Sarah Waters such as Fingersmith and Affinity, she replaces the byronic hero with a strong female. Its an interesting element but I think it works. Although Waters is a lesbian I would like to point out that I am not typically drawn to lesbian texts but I just think her plots work.
