I like to to know why certain words are taboo?

When they are common words found in the dictionary. Like the word A**. The US censor boards still thinks that is a dirty word.

    I'd like to know too. I can't even post ****. I don't think it's Yahoo; I believe it's the no life's that sit in wait to delete anything they find against their own opinion. Such sad lives they lead.

    Source(s): A*R*S*E !!!! Such a nasty word. I hope God don't punish me for using it.

    I'm afraid most Americans have forgotten that the word A** is a legitimate word for an animal related to the donkey. Such is the insidiuous infilitration of pop culture and media brainwashing.
