Would go along with that, and I think this is something that's across our society. For example, I saw an article today about Jeremy Forrest, the teacher who was seemingly 'in love' and ran off to France with a 15 year old pupil, where he was branded a paedophile. I think there's something seriously wrong with our terminology if his actions lead to the same labeling as someone who abducts and rapes a 5 year old.
Two very different crimes, but both tagged with the same stigmatic name.
