[quote=@Inkarnate] Probably because Mary-Jane Watson is as interesting as beige wallpaper in a room with brown carpet and brown furniture. Very few writers can make such a bland character engaging and interesting.

There are a great many criticisms that could be leveled against MJ -- and I'd agree with a fair few of them -- but "bland" isn't one of them. Gwen has the monopoly on that front. At least MJ, if nothing else, could be reduced to a label: party girl. What's Gwen's label? "Spider-Man's (dead) girlfriend"?
