I've read most of those! A few are really really lovely. A few are really...not problematic so much as really fucking weird for me. The BDSM stuff that shows up in ace fic blows my mind, but whatever I know how I work, but I have no idea how other folks work. There's also a class of fic (that I saw waaaay more when I used to bounce around the Sherlock fandom) that would tag asexuality and then have the point of the story be 'OMG HE'S CURED' or deal with it in a way the makes it seem almost like a fettish and those really rub me the wrong way.

The good ones make it worth it in almost any fandom.

(The math geek in me also feels inclined to point out that a bit of a factor in SGA showing up in the top ten is the fact that it's a really big fandom. You'd really have to do it as a proportion to make it mean something. This is also why you've got such high counts for the monster fandoms: SPN, Avengers/MCU, SGA, Homestruck (which I've never heard of but has 20K fics holy crap). The smaller fandoms with the big numbers are more of interest. Les Mis and White Collar are the frequency winners if you recalculate.)
