But what has your country to do with this forum, except for the language?

The f word does have a meaning, however it is hardly ever used in its actual context, there it is used to offend not to explain a sentence.

Even in its actual context it is not a decent word. That does not mean that it is only there to offend. BJ have on their site "What a great f***ing day for R'N'R". I don't think that this is to offend people.

I understand that you dont swear normally , no reason to start now  You will find that I have asked most people on this board to not swear at some time or the other. Some now asterisk their swear words out, therefore I dont have to read them and know to ignore it, however your type of swearing even in the message here is blatant and it obvious to the word you are using which is why I asked you not to swear.

Bad language is usually censored automatically on this board. Now, if I make one asterisk or two... you still know what is behind them.
Blatant? I thought there would be no more proper moment to type out the word than the one when we are actually discussing it. It is a word, it has a meaning, it's listed in every decent dictionary. And there it is referred to as "coarse", not offensive.
