I am not condoning either, and I know what everybody means when they say "rape", but rape and kidnapping are actually the same word. They technically mean the same thing. Rapio is Latin, where the Bible gets the word, rapture. It means to steal away or snatch. Historically, when women are kidnapped/raped, the men force themselves on the female, which is why we have linked this word to simply a man forcing himself upon a female. I know it doesn't change what you're talking about, just thought you would like to know.
