If you've ever suffered trauma or lived with a loved one who has, you know why rape analogies (or anything else which maps to a significant trauma, ie someone who has had a loved one murdered, someone in a war, etc) are put on a pedestal. It's not something you ever forget, and being reminded of it can be particularly visceral. Further, I'd wager rape and sexual assault occur much more commonly than murder for those working in white collar, professional contexts, and that it disproportionately affects women, who already have a bad hand dealt in tech.
