Why did you you use the term 'R-word' for the word 'rape but not 'T-word' for 'torture' or 'M-word' for 'murder'?

The glib response is that if you're trying to avoid triggering someone, I'd wager more people reading it have been raped than have been murdered.

...then you probably won't succeed anyway, as triggers tend to be random associations.

Ummm, murdered (dead) people probably can't read anymore, thus wouldn't be triggered?

And a murder-victim-to-be still probably wouldn't be triggered, since s/he hasn't "experienced" it yet.

That's how I interpreted the comment anyway :)

Are you suggesting these people are reading from beyond the grave?
