I didn't hear the story but I think the furthest any rape story should go is "They made me have sex with them against my will in inappropriate places."
I think every kid old enough to turn on the TV probably knows what rape is now. First Kobe, now all this crap. Not that they shouldn't know... my parents never fed me any sort of bs or answered questions with other questions, but so many parents are so anal (no pun intended) about this kind of stuff that I don't see why they would make a big thing out of this.
