I've just found you through your comment at metafandom :)
I agree with most of what you said there. I have to confess, I don't read much femslash. I like it, at least in certain fandoms; it's just that there's just so little of it out there of the type of fics I like.
But I do think that women are very often portrayed as weaker in fanfiction than in canon. I've never seen *any* of the regular women in either SG shows as weak. Sam, Elizabeth and Teyla are all very strong women, and all of them are sadly underused in fanfiction. And not just femslash.
