No, the key is whether they're considered often or usually disparaging, obscene, offensive, or vulgar by Merriam-Webster OnLine:
So if I am using a word I have questions about, can I check to see if the word is vulgar by using the online dictionary?
Otherwise how would I know it's offensive, or vulgar?
thanks
