Why is the alternate word for "molestation" banned...
...When molestation is the one almost exclusively used to describe sexual violence?
Neither word bothers me, and the filtering of them is a minor annoyance I can live with, but the inconsistency seems odd.
The M word
[quote]
1. To disturb, interfere with, or annoy.
2. To subject to unwanted or improper sexual activity.[/quote]
The R word
[quote]
1. The crime of forcing another person to submit to sex acts, especially sexual intercourse.
2. The act of seizing and carrying off by force; abduction.
3. Abusive or improper treatment; violation: a -blam!- of justice.[/quote]
See that, it has two non-sex definitions vs molestation only having one non-sexual use.
So why is molestation not banned as well?
[spoiler]And can we ban the word "van" while we are at it? :P[/spoiler]
