Good for you. I worked on a rape crisis line so I know all the hoops you have to jump through to actually catch the bad guys. Probably why I almost never write rape scenes, I know too much about them.

You raised alot of good points, and things I will remember next time I look at any website. I remember to go and research charities to see how they rate, but I forget to double check other organizations.

Personally... don't like the 'cst fics either.. oh people can write them, but they have to be out of this world to get me to read them, because would much rather read something else. Probably why most X/W don't get me, seems too much like incest in my head... now X/Dawn if it is well written I can buy.

One of my fic writer friends in Oz had a huge scare because of the new laws with sex/age restrictions, she almost pulled half her stories because of a clone Jack having a crush on a 15 yo Dawn. The way the law has changed (as I understand it) made that illegal.

I wish the government would back off a lot and let people live their lives.

But then you really don't want to know my view on child/sexual predators.. ~sighs~

I've actually written a rape scene. I'm a victim of it.
Strangely enough, it helped me feel better. I suppose it's because I had control over the scene and could stop or even retcon it if I ever felt the wish to. Now, I'm writing that character slowly but surely getting over it and living his life normally.
