As a sailor, having been in this exact type of scenario, I can assure you that it is a very unpleasant surprise indeed. I went ballistic, I knew of an oppo of mine who actually decked the individual in question (not the same one). I am not surprised as no one likes to be made a fool of or deceived in this way.
To those who take offence at the phase “Trap”, it is a term describing behaviour, and the desired outcome of said behaviour. If deceit is used, then if the shoe fits wear it.
A group of people, however should not be judged by the actions of a few, if you take offence at phrases being used as slurs then look to cause of the offence.
I will sign off by saying, be who you are, as that is the measure of a person rather than what you are. Good luck to you all.
