There are myriad possible reasons for the existence of this trope. Some [[http://www.adherents.com/misc/hsk.html historical precedent]] exists in the fact that an overwhelming majority of {{serial killer}}s raped their victims before (or after) killing them. In fan works, there tends to be an [[{{Squick}} alarming and bizarre]] combination of DracoInLeatherPants and NotIfTheyEnjoyedItRationalization, especially in BoysLove genre. Sometimes, however, the reasoning is just the opposite; since rape is frequently viewed as a FateWorseThanDeath, if a writer wants to create a totally unsympathetic villain, [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil rape is a very easy way to push any character over]] the MoralEventHorizon, [[RonTheDeathEater especially if done with a canon character who would never do such a thing in canon]].
