For me, it's 1993-1994.

I watched back in the late 80s:

Steve & Kayla
Bo & Hope
Britta & Lars storylines
Kimberly & Shane
Eve coming to town and making trouble/working for Nick
Frankie & Jennifer
Other teens on during that time

I was right after this era when Jennifer went from a high school student to a college graduate in 6 months and fell in love with Jack.

I really did not like that. Not only was Jack a rapist, he got away with it! And is treated like he did no wrong.

It's amazing how shows are able to redeem characters like that. On General Hospital, the famed power couple Luke and Laura started out with Luke raping her. After they redeemed the character and they became a fan favorite couple, they tried to revise history and call it a seduction.

I started watching after Jack raped Kayla and learned about it after I became a fan of them. Still, you're right about how disturbing it is that the character avoided punishment. I guess it's tough for a soap opera to let go of a good character no matter how heinous he behaved. In the show's defense I will say that at least unlike General Hospital, they didn't try to pretend it never happened and part of Jack's redemption included his own self hatred as well as his apology to Kayla.

I didn't see that part, I had stopped watching by then. Not because of that, just lost interest in the show.
