I am truly sorry if I hurt any feelings. I honestly was not aware that we as a society decided that using that word is insensitive. I (34M) was sexually assaulted when I was 8, FWIW, and I understand that words have power. I just didn't get the memo in this case.

What is the considerate way to title this post?

Generally people would call it sexual assault, or shorten it to SA sometimes, just as is the case for CP or CSAM.
