"Jackass" is also heard in Disney's Pinocchio, a kid's film, and if I could remember correctly, I read it on Tom and Jerry. Therefor, "jackass" should be fine. Those were from the 1940s, a time period where many inappropriate things today weren't thought much about back then. I see your point, just wanted to point this out.

That was also the time when curse words were a taboo, now many people say them in their everyday lives.
