Using the word casually makes people think of it as a casual thing. You may not, but you're not everyone. While I personally think that's a poor way to get a point across, it's the only one that seems to do anything since so many people don't realise how many people have been hurt by it. Molestation tends to be more of a legal term as well. While I do think it's a bit much that the other word is being filtered, I completely understand. I would never use the word itself without directly talking about it. It's not a bloody adjective for crying out loud. It's an offence and should be treated as such. It's one of the few crimes that does so much irrevocable damage and has the gall to let the victim try and "live" after it. It's not just a physical crime, it does intense psychological damage as well, which everyone who hasn't experienced (including myself) can't fully understand. If people started saying stupid things like "The football team got molested last game. They did terribly." I'm sure that molested would also get filtered. Just remember, here isn Canada roughly 1:17 females are sexually harmed in that way, even more so with sexual assaults in general. In America, that number goes up to 1:6 for females. Many males have a stigma of admitting, let alone reporting being assaulted in this way. Many in general go unreported do to general stigma for both sexes.
