He tends to run on the "women are frequently smarter than men" trope, but more in a sitcom way. A lot of the women in his novels are right, but that's not obvious, and the main men in his books do tend to fall into the socially-inept dork but really nice guy category.

There are a lot of manipulative women characters, a lot of devious women characters, and a lot of women characters who seem to lose their common sense when the main guy of the book is around and sacrifice themselves to men's interests. I still have a soft spot for some of them, though.

I like a lot of things about Moore's work, but his portrayal of women is pretty commonplace, problematic, and could be a lot better.
