Non-con for me is highly dependent on context more so then POV.

Boderline non-con, as in it's more a game between lovers then actually genuine non-con, is one of my favorite fic!kinks. In which case I'll take either POV because it's basically just smut and can be hot from either perspective.

True non-con on the other hand is generally something I only want to read in the context of h/c stories. In which you're likely to get the victim's POV regardless because it is, for example, all about Xander recovering from getting raped by whomever (father, monster, etc) and then his road to recovery under Spike's care. In this case you’re unlikely to get the rapist’s POV because the story simply isn’t about them.

If, on the other hand, it is, for example, Spike raping Xander or vice versa, I'm much less interested in the fic all together because I just don't deal well with fic that dark. I don't like seeing characters I adore put in the role of a rapist. I don't ever want to have to understand them from that perspective. I'll make an exception if it's gloriously well-written, or by an author I adore, but will probably need excessive amounts of schoompy fic afterward. And POV, again, doesn't really matter to me.

No need to screen.
