Words that minimise

Several times on here I’ve seen an area described as ‘stabby’ or a man or his behaviour described as ‘rapey’. I hate these words being used as imo, they sound childish and minimise the horror of the crimes to which they refer.

Completely agree, almost like a humorous connotation of the word, horrible
