I myself have thought about it and since words are defined by humans, how can we be afraid of any word? If the word "hate" is not a swear word than why any other? Is any word any worse an idea than the word "hate"? This stems from conservative thinking that by not allowing certain words in our language we can somehow control the tone of a message. Well if thats the case than the word "hoochie" "beaver" "kill" " murder" "drive-by" " screw" "bang" " and umpteen others should be considered profane as well. Ed Ed
