I'd have to disagree: if there is no doubt what the word is, how are
anyone's
presumably tender sensibilities being protected?
Because there are youngsters that visit newsgroups as well as us old pharts -
personally, I'd rather not be the one to add select words to their
vocabulary.
Will they learn them? Most certainly. Hopefully, not from me.
The way an English teacher once explained it, "F-words" are for people with
limited vocabularies - if thats the best word you know for a given situation,
it shows your lack of education." I probably thought , "What the #$^% does
she
know??" at the time....
