why is it that i am not permitted to use my language on yahoo without being censured by yahoo?
i am an english man so therefore i speak english and i write in english yet i am being discriminated by yahoo who just will not permit me to use my language on here well it is not language
that i have devised as this has been going on for about 2000 years not just over 200 years America England have used this language without problems so why then are we not permited to use certain words that are in the oxford dictionary if you went to eton or harrow or any public school then you would of had a junior to do what ever it is that needed doing they were and are still called fags this does not mean that they are homosexual but it is a term that has been used in england for 600 years and now yahoo says we can not use that so allso we have a dish made up of offal and covered in pigs caul yet we are not permitted to use its name in case we upset yahoo they are called faggots in england and as what we call a cat some times we call them ***** cats but for whatever reason yahoo says that we can not do that so come on yahoo you are just not permitting my freedom to write in writein english in england that is a hate crime in england and so is discrimination do not censureusingr useing my language
as i am not an accademic my grama is not as it should be but the point is like it or not we do use these words be they spoken or written down they are all in use today in england so i thank you for pointing out to me something that i know my english grama is not that good

i agree, although perhaps its done to stop others being abusive? say for example you asked a question about being an open gay? you wouldn't really want to see that some childish idiot had repeatedly called you a F. A.g would you? i do agree though, maybe yahoo should set up an 18+ Q&A?

You have to be a bit careful. If your English is as good as the written question above, they would quickly conclude that you don't have a great command of it.
Nevertheless, I know what you mean. I had the same trouble using the well-known English three-letter word beginning with A which means a donkey. But you have to remember that this site is run by Americans and their English is quite different in many ways from the original mother-tongue. Your frustration is understandable but it's a classic case of pipers and tunes.

Your use of the word 'of' where you should have used the word 'have' shows that you don't quite have the command of English that you thought. There are also punctuation problems in your question. Having said that, Yahoo! are very keen not to upset anyone so where text may be seen as misrepresentation, it gets censored.
