A silent thread for the word "fuck"

93. It was highly regional

My high school in Dogpatch down in Dixie had a few NY transplants come in during my junior year and they all sounded like longshoremen.

When I ran away from home (out of high school, saved my money) in the late 60s, I landed in Boston. Boston Irish led the way in the whole city sounding like a bunch of longshoremen.

I was delighted when I moved out to NM in the early 90s that the local Hispanos were just as potty mouthed. I don't know if it recently spread out here or if it always existed; it's a poor state and there's a lot out here to criticize, full blast.

The reason movies were unrealistically prissy was the Hayes Office, the outfit that thought having actors playing married couples using one bed was immoral and insisted twin beds be used on the set. Yes, they were insane.

I'm against any censorship unless posters are hurling pejoratives at each other. I can tolerate the occasional well crafted insult, I'm talking about hard fighting words against a poster whose POV one doesn't like. That brings down the forums almost as much as picking and carping about ordinary language does.
