RAPE does not require a PENIS (Best regards dear Sir and my apologies)

no doubt you are aware: if an inanimate object is picked apart and theft takes place, that one may say it was raped

"Though the sexual connotation is today dominant, the word "rape" can be used in non-sexual context in literary English. In Alexander Pope's The Rape of the Lock, the title means "the theft of a lock [of hair]", exaggerating a trivial violation against a person. In the twentieth century, the classically trained J. R. R. Tolkien used the word with its old meaning of "seizing and taking away" in his "The Silmarillion"." quoted from Wikipedia

Hope a four is ok, its punchy, not perfect.
