There will always be bad!fic, unfortunately. That's the rules. The only solution is to drown it out with good!fic, which people write less of when they're all pissed off. Grouchiness in some of my fandoms has caused the good writers to take their balls and go home.
In my opinion it's gratuitous and unnecessary, especially since the one character that keeps getting raped in these fics has already been raped once before in canon.
Ugh. That's just, what, punishment?
The idea that being raped by a man "causes" someone to turn to lesbianism leaves me vaguely nauseous. The hurt/comfort angle, I can understand, but Christ, just hit one of them with a car and be done with it. You know?
