I agree. There was a case where a member used to word rape, but they had absolutely no idea that it was a nasty word because of the casual way people use it on this forum. Because she was foreign and only just realised the seriousness of what she said, she apologized. But I think even if people don't agree with the moral aspect of using the word rape, I still thing it is important that is not misused because we do have a few foreign people who will not understand the serious nature of the word, and after all this is a language forum, we want to help people with their English, not distort it.

I was at first uncomfortable seeing it used... but I've figured that it is not meant as actual rape....
it's just my opinion, but since the people I've seen use it, I don't believe actually do it for real, in real life outside of the forum, then it doesn't bother me so much. not as it used to. hide... always in my heart. I love you.... my pink spider.... My one wish is 2 meet Kyo. seriously. R.I.P. Jasmine....

I dont mind seeing it used at all. I've heard it being used on comedy TV shows and stuff. And I've used it a lot. Joking about raping a Jrocker or something doesnt mean we're saying "oh, rape is fine!"...
I dont hang out in the music section as much as I used to, so I dont use it as often. If there was a person on here who was a victim of rape and requested us to stop using it because they genuinely were offended, then we would stop... |

The whole point here is that it's a word that shouldn't be sued so lightly, or in a joking manner. It's not about people going out and actually doing it or not. It's pretty much a given that all the "kids" on this forum tossing the word around aren't really going to do it.
The fact is though, it's not a fucking joke. So stop treating it like one.
