I know exactly what you mean. I like pregnancy in fic sometimes, but the overuse of it is simply astounding. And you are so right - no one treats it realistically, especially when it comes to teen pregnancy.
I know fanfic is fantasy and all, but these writers are just writing out their own fantasies, without realising sometimes it just doesn't make sense to a lot of readers...
And another thing I find annoying is the way writers treat physical/domestic/sexual violence in such a laissez fair manner. I'm sorry, but every tom-dick-harry who broke Kagome's or Sakura's heart didn't necessarily have to have beaten them up or raped them or abused them or whatever for them to find ultimate peace and true love with Inu Yasha/Sesshoumaru or Syaoran.
It's just so ridiculous. Why can't they write plots where things just simply don't work out. It happens you know? Not everything is dramatic.
Things like this really ruin what could otherwise have been a great fic.
YES. So overused. I read a lot of fics like that - I don't find it as annoying as some other things, but it's just...tired after a while. It's probably what most of the people want, though.
