Why the **** cant we say ****?

[DieHard]

We can say shit, so why not f|_|ck?

 

[The Mullinator]

Because there are invisible lines in western society when it comes to slang in the language. Right now there is a line between those two words, shit is a line that can be crossed today without evoking any real controversy. f|_|ck however will evoke controversy. Since this site wants to cater to as many people as possible its best not to cross the f|_|ck line.

but with the **** we already know what it means so why not let with what we already know?

 

[The Mullinator]

Because this is how society works. Its stupid and the only people who believe other wise are either right-wing censors who believe in nothing but "family values". Or academics (and academic wannabes) who feel such slang degrades an argument.

In my opinion neither are right but then again I also realize that a few years ago saying shit was crossing a certain line that would be looked down upon. Thats changed and I don't see any reason why in another few years **** won't be moved behind the line as well.
