How it's used
Carries a strong, aggressive tone used to label someone as a predatory or habitual sexual offender. It is much more severe than simply calling someone a pervert or a creep, as it implies a demonic or monstrous nature. People typically use this term in heated arguments or when describing someone who has committed serious misconduct.
