Hoi, I have been in a discussion about having swear words in dictionaries. One point is that many people do not know what is actually said in "swear words". In my opinion many of these are not understood as a consequence. Motherfucker is a good example. In my opinion, it is best to debunk swear words, make sure that they are understood as it is the best way to deflate their effectiveness.
Some people have these nice little quotations at the end of their mails ... By the way Chad, are you an only child ? Thanks, GerardM

There are many motherfuckers, typically they have someone calling them

or daddy.
Thanks, GerardM
That last comment was not needed. I politely ask you to either use different words or retract the comment entirely.
Thanks,
