How is using the term "raped" sexist?

Because when it comes from people spraying porn on any surface they come in contact with, or who address females (whom they don't happen to suck up to) as "bitch" on principle, or any male they don't like as "fag", it's rather obvious how this all connects, and that it's basically insecure dumb male chauvinism letting the hair down. At this point it doesn't even matter if some females parrot the language as well, the source is still obvious.

Are you also offended by the words "dominated", "murdered", "owned"?

Not offended, but I pity the fools, yes. These concepts have one thing in common to me; I understand how they would seem desirable to people who can't make women laugh nor orgasm. Of course, just because every Volvo is a car, doesn't mean every car is a Volvo. But still.

Those people also spray male genitals and homosexual porn. They normally aim to be annoying (trolls, griefers, etc). That has nothing to do with the word raped though.

Your second answer goes off in a tangent so I won't bother with that.

Those people also react aggressively without any humour to women who show confidence? Bullshit. And just because some people do sexist stuff for the purpose of trolling, doesn't mean it's not based on actual sexism, and that the actual sexism doesn't occur at the same time. I guess it just gives some people an opportunity to put their blinders on.

Heh? Kindly scroll up: you asked, I answered. And if you think those terms are not based on physical dominance and how that attracts some men and rarely women, then I think you're even more unaware of the real world than of gaming.

I'm not understanding this correctly.

The term "rape" in gaming isn't a sexist term. It is often used when a team of 5 guys beats 5 other guys. (Common in LoL) Nothing to do with gender, all about dominance, power, strength and humility. Other variations: "We owned you", "We killed you", "We murdered you on the field", etc)

And yes, you answered my question. (You're not offended by the other words) but then you went on to talk about "people who can't make women laugh nor orgasm" which really has no place in the conversation.

I still don't understand how the term "raped" is sexist. For "raped" to be sexist, it would have to imply some gender when both men and women can be raped.

May I ask how many hours playing online shooters you have under your belt? This word isn't being used in a vacuum.

Have you ever looked at what rape is in REAL life ? It's something done massively by men and a huge proportions of rapes are by men on women. Words don't exist in a vacuum. Rape is not some vaporous ethereal concept.
