"Molestable" is presently, as I hope it shall remain, a slang word, excluded from any dictionaries of integrity.

As well as the word's general ugliness (adding "-able" to a verb to create an adjective is a sure way to create an uninteresting word), it is simply unnecessary as far as I can discern. On what basis would one person be "molestable" or not? Anyone is free to molest anybody if they choose to, unless they lack spatial access to a person, in which case he or she would simply be "unreachable" or "inaccessible", rather than "unmolestable".

It is also suggested elsewhere that "molestable" is an adjective indicative of aesthetic or sexual appeal, eg. "That girl is so molestable". In this context, as in the previous, I suggest the word is unnecessary, and would advocate a more creative and socially acceptable manner in which to express your attraction to somebody. (Unless you are quite literally a molester yourself, and are discussing a potential victim with another molester. In this situation, the word is ideal)

of course, in stead of using the word "Molestable," you could choose to uncomplicate things a little and simply say "I'd Hit that -- without her Permission"
