It's really unfortunate that a term like "rape" has become so commonplace not just in gaming but with males describing sports events. Boys in need of a superlative. Another disturbing one is males describing sexual intent with violent terms: e.g., "I'd smash her." Not sure if it happens in the US, but I hear it in pubs/bars in Australia.
- nefitty 11y agoYeah, kind of a weird coincidence but I was just recently writing a song about criticizing that "hit-it" mindset. I didn't realize that even terms like that have underlying violent connotations. I began listing some terms I hear, but realized how distasteful that is especially given the article above. Here in Vegas there is definitely a lot of that slang thrown around.
