Oh, I've read those kinda fics that make me ill too. I get angry at the author for using the idea/plot up (made a piece of crap with a great idea for a story), making it difficult to another author to write something better. I literally growl...
There was an argument in the Farscape fandom once, that Ben Browder ended. There was an episode where an evil female character 'drugged' Ben's character and basically coerced Crichton into having sex. Some fans thought the character would just shrug it off as he was a guy... Ben sad his character would never have gotten over the 'rape' (his words) and that came out in a later episode (I saw it and you could see the anger Crichton had towards her).
From what you told me, Sheppard was raped and the author's reaction in the fic was all wrong. The fic could have been so much more...
