(That was the reason why the middle of the F-word wasn't xx'ed out).
Apart from that, I have to say I really find it a bit
And I also think it's pretty ridiculuous to believe kids will be endangered by the use of that word on a web forum.
Just listen to the average rap lyrics those exact same kids are listening to, or take a look at the explicit killing of people in modern action films. Nobody finds the latter politically uncorrect, but God beware there'd be a (semi-) nude woman in that same film......
Least of all, listen to some average kids' day-to-day use of language and you will find words in there that will definitely go well beyond what even I categorise as swearing....
