My feelings about dub-con tend to depend on the characters and the fandom. It's not something I kink on generally, but I do think that it's pretty much canon for Blade: Trinity, given the whole King/Danica thing (and I've written it that way, probably because it is a kink for me when King's the subject of it. I have thoughts about King. Lots of thoughts about him on his knees that I tend not to have as frequently about other characters :D)
I'm much better with it if it's a guy being dub-conned and it has that dynamic - smart assed man reduced to silence. I think it's partly it's because it's an offshoot of hurt comfort for me, and I do have a fondness for hurt comfort - like I said, I have a thing for the smart-mouthed, slightly broken guy who worships the ground the female character walks on, and breaking him [ETA: him being 'the guy', not a specific character] a little more, including dub-con, would make me happy :).
However, I have to admit that I don't really enjoy dub-con with a woman in the coerced position. It's a little too close to home, you know?
In terms of kinks, I like the woman to be in control, not necessarily in a dom way, but in a 'definitely knows what she wants and isn't afraid to say so/get the guy (or girl) to do it, calling the shots' way. Again, it sort of depends on the characters, but given the characters I've picked, I can definitely see it for most of the fandoms/pairings/characters I've requested (except possibly Rivers of London, which tends to be more gen driven for me - although Peter/Varvara with that dynamic could be fun :D).
I also have a fondness for m/m/f threesomes, where the woman is the centre of attention and it's about reducing her to incoherent pleasure. In fact, I kind of like the idea of female characters being reduced to mindless sensation, especially if they're the strong, stoic type who doesn't let their guard down easily. I suppose it's a trust kink as well as anything else.
If you're my writer (and I'm assuming you are :)), then I would be perfectly happy with you writing what you think is hot. Chances are, if you think it's hot, then you'll convince me. The only exceptions that I know I wouldn't like are things involving the infliction of a lot of pain (a little can be nice); that hit my embarrassment/humiliation squick (which would include anything that makes me think 'hygiene!').
Who knows, I might find other things I didn't even know I liked :)
