It's like obscene language. The current 3-4 letter words currently known today weren't always THE dirty words. They used to use other ones. Heck, only recently has the word ass been considered indecent. In the appropriate context it simply means donkey or mule. That brings to mind another question. Where exactly did all the recent obscene words originate?
