I do kind of agree with you; I do think that Faith would have thought about what she did whilst in prison and to have it made a joke, probably because male rape is largely taken far less seriously than female rape, which as we can all see is not taken nearly as seriously as it should be, was a huge mistake.
Most of my Faith fanfic is based around her and Tara as a couple, but there was a chemistry between the two; Faith was lashing out most at the people who tried to help her the most, so it was maybe understandable that she'd fin dit hardest to come to terms with what she nearly did to Xander; personally I believe if Angel hadn't intervened she would have murdered him.
If I do write a proper story about them as a couple the whole set of issues you mention will have to be dealt with.
