re: Is "legitimate rape" placed in quotes and considered offensive because women

The fact that the word "rape" is used at all infers that rape occurred.
No it doesn't.
The inclusion of the word, "illegitimate" directly in front of the word, "rape" means that in reality it wasn't a rape.
quote:
No, in the real world that's just called "rape". What you are advocating is like calling your car your "automobile car".
This is no different from when the definition of the word, "marriage" was changed to include two people of the same sex and the new term, "same sex marriage" was created to describe a marriage composed of two people of the same sex.
The term, "legitimate rape" was created after the feminazis and their supporters changed the meaning of the word, "rape" to include some sexual acts which previously were not included in the old definition of the word, "rape".
If people would stop redefining the meaning of words like "rape" in order to include in the new definition those acts that were intended to be excluded from the old definition then there would be no need to create new terms like "illegitimate rape" and "legitimate rape".
quote:
I am quite offended because your attempt at word play still clumsily ties "rape" to someone innocent of the crime and you expect people not to understand that.
If you are offended because you continue to think the use of the term "illegitimate rape" still clumsily ties "rape" to someone innocent of the crime then blame the feminazis and their supporters not me.
If they didn't change the definition of the word, "rape" to include some sexual acts which were not previously considered "rape" under the old definition of the word, "rape" then there would have been no need for these two new terms to have been created.
quote:
So your desire for approval of "illegitimate rape" as a means of describing someone falsely accused is found to be... wait for it... illegitimate.
I'm not desiring approval of the two terms.
I'm only explaining why these two new terms came into existence and how they are now being used.

My mistake, thought you were championing the term.

Then there's no reason to state it at all. It's not a charge and thus should not be used. Try using it in a sentence that does not in some way infer guilt of something.

Pick your appropriate modifier then. There's a difference between forcible rape (rape in my way of thinking) and statutory rape which is sometimes forcible, (rape in my way of thinking) and consentual statutory rape. (rape in my way of thinking)
