Does Dr. Bob make the descision on what words get automatically astricked?
I still would like to know why f*art is one of those words. Is passing gas (which is the same thing), is that considered bad words?
And does using astricks really make the word less civil? (everyone still knows what those words mean) Like when as a kid you say darn instead of d*mn, I would still get in trouble for both words.
I guess I just don't understand how some things like Xrated stuff about sex is okay to post, but not the word f*art.
Even if you compair the words f*rt and f*ck, which would be considered more uncivil if you said them in public? My teachers could say f*rt and not get in any trouble, but if they said f*ck, well they got into trouble.
And is using astricks truely more civil than not?
Maybe to be on the safe side, Dr. Bob could make a list of words that are not allowed at all on the site. Now that would make it more civil and more clear, and his judgement, which it is his site.
If f*rt is concidered uncivil, why not orgasim, or peeing? (all bodily functions)
I am not uncomfortable at all talking about sex, but that one thread did get x-rated, and I was surprised it was allowed on this site. I am like how many guys are reading this getting turned on, it was like a playboy fantasy forum.
I guess I just don't get it yet.
