it seems to me, that if we worried about offending everyone that has had some misfortune in their lives, this would be a verrry boring place.

I don't want to belittle whatever experience you've had with this particular topic. I just want to point out that when a victim of a crime(or any bad mojo, for that matrter) experiences their victimization, it is their perception that changes, not the rest of the world. YOU may be better served if he did not make light of rape. you really can't expect people to see things through your eyes though. admonishing him for it is rather unfair, actually.
