It's unwieldy all right. But only a nun would actually use it.
Perp would be the natural nickname. And only a nun would be immune from getting called Perp, at least to her face; if she was a teaching nun and not well-liked, her students might call her Perp behind her back.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
