Why all the rape?

Do we really need powerful female characters to be raped in order to have them overcome obstacles? Do we really need to inflict that kind of violence on film to prove villains are evil? Is there really no other way? These writers lacked in imagination if they go right to rape to make a strong female character feel degraded. I don’t care if the rapists eventually die, to go straight to rape to make the female characters helpless is a sad attempt at character evolution. Maybe if it was one time I can ignore it but more than that? Really that just means a lack of originality or maybe a creepy perversion. The way the writers use rape to victimize women and belittle them makes me disgusted. The only thing they have going for them are the costumes, scenery and actors. Having to act out a terrible script takes it’s toll. Poor females actors.
