LOL
I got nailed in either the 6th or 7th grade for the use of this word. Long, long time ago.
I was raised in a very, very small farm community town. I used the word in reference to a female dog.
Afterwards , the word got transfered to describe the old B we had as a teacher.

Education is a wonderful thing.

Sheesh, guys, c'mon... You're only entitled to freedom of speech when the spineless agree with what you say....

Did you all wake up yesterday?

Yeah freedom of speach is just something the progressive left spouts off about to fool their followers into thinking they care about it.

Stupid laws like this and hate crime laws are what they really want.

They are a bunch of stupid ****ing **** ******* *****es.

Half my conversation would be gone,” said Michael Musto, the Village Voice columnist, whom a reporter encountered on his bicycle on Sunday night on the corner of Seventh Avenue South and Christopher Street. Mr. Musto, widely known for his coverage of celebrity gossip, dismissed the idea as absurd

His columns must be pretty boring if he only uses the b-word ever other word.
Profanity is an attempt of a weak mind trying to express itself forcibly.

Oh yeah and that is a perfectly good reason to ban words in a free society.

Guess they will prosecute rappers? My bet is these laws will apply only to white men.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.

Might hurt some wussy prettythang b-word legislator though. Stupid fools!

Besides, many of us use the term asexually. A male is equally capable of b-wordiness as a female.

If I call someone a 'female dog' is there really any difference? I don't like it when people call me whitey, even though I am, so we should ban that too to protect my tender and fragile sensibilities.

Can I still say studmuffingot if I'm talking about a bundle of sticks? That's what it really means.

It's a valid form of expression, and often there is no better way to express one's sentiment. The F-word, which I really wish I could display right now, is the most versatile word in the English language. George Carlin puts it best. Especially with his 'seven deadly words' bit. Absolutely classic!

Tits? Tits doesn't even sound that bad! Sounds like a snack! Cheese Tits?

You can salamander your finger, but don't finger your salamander!

Does it really matter what we call our excrement? We all do it, and it all stinks.

I especially love when Carlin transposes the word 'kill' with the F-word in cliches from old westerns.
