I don't know. Finger was still pretty funny in the 90s. Even in the early to late 00's I remember having a good laugh over a professor telling us to practice fingering him. It's very antiquated English (I'd estimate pre-1970) to say you're "fingering" the bad guy, or "I was fingered by the police for the crime". In fact, I can only think of it's proper use in the context of matlock-type crime dramas and black-and-white noir films. I don't think there's a thing to blame here. No hypersensitivity or anything. It's funny and it's been a sexual pun for decades (possibly even centuries). I wouldn't even go so far as to say it's a lazy pun. The joke even exists in stringed instrument circles. It's almost an universal constant for sexual innuendo in several fields. It's actually a perfect case study for naming. You should always check for double entendres you didn't intend or secondary meanings. Another perfect case study is Experts Exchange which in the URL spelled "expert sex change". I don't think hypersensitivity made that apparent. I think we all have a national lampoon level of humor occasionally and these things are conduits of it.
