There is no particular indication that the OP was calling forth the grand "victim narrative," or comparing themselves to sexual assault survivors in any way.

>Victims are specifically targetted, or some sort of personal boundary is violated. It can get very personal.

That's a mischaracterization of the word, focusing on a subset of the cases where it applies. I think a good argument against that mischaracterization might be:

>We might sometimes talk about someone being a victim of an impersonal force. For example, someome being injured as a result of a tsunami.
