    The word "rape" is not a swear word, but the connotations associated with the word - the violence and sexual abuse - make it a word that should only be used with forethought.

    It may not be a swear word but it is certainly an ugly word

    I've never seen an example of that. I've only seen it used in context.

    I guess people see it as such a terrible thing that they use the word as a swear word as a terrible meaning

    The same as saying "negro" to a person who has dark colored skin. Why won't we just ban all words and never speak again? This is going overhands..

    It is a horrible thing, not so much the physical aspect of it (though that is not something to be minimized) as the psychological aspect of it. It is the complete perversion of an act that should be enjoyable, intimate, and special and making it into something monstrous.

    Everyones right. Its an ugly word and such a disrespect that some may get bothered if people bring up the subject. If some people bring it up easily, than it bothers me myself.
