Okay, seriously--have you ever read much het fic, like stuff written by het-only writers?
I tried a couple of times. I read one story written by one of the bona fide 5 star feminist SGA writers, and she'd done the old Rodney is a woman named Meredith trick. It was a good, well written story, with an interesting premise, and Meredith was so passive in her relationship with John that she was unrecognizable as the woman from the rest of the story.
Then there was the surprise!John/Elizabeth story posted to SGA flashfic, that was like a fifties sitcom in space.

I have read some damn fine femslash, though.
