So Raise a Glass to "Fuck"

zero

Hmm... I thought thought the word had its origins in American Puritanism, as an acronym placed over the stocks in the village square, standing for Fornication Under Carnal Knowledge. I still find the word an offensive description of the act of sex. (Oh, Fornication is the word to describe sex between unmarried men and women.)

ok fucker ! I realy don't fuckin like this fuckin word ok ! And I fuckin don't use this fuckin word fuckin at all ! So go fuck your little fuckin word fuckin study and fuck yourself : ).......how fuckin was that ?.....................fuckin A ! I know......fuckjuicebox69

And fuck that !!

Actually . . . .

I learned that the word comes from English baily (common) law. In the late middle ages English law required any young unmarried woman to be escorted by a relative and prohibited adult men from escorting these young women without chaperones. Anyone one caught in violation of these laws was arrested and held for trial. The charge was based on the assumption that the supposed offenders had already had unnatural (not married) carnal knowledge (even a kiss was too much).

Sheriffs, though little more educated than the general population (that is, functionally illiterate!), were required to post signs identifying why the person(s) were held. The result, signs nailed on stocks or cell doors with the first letter of each word of the charge. So a prisoner waiting trial For Unnatural Carnal Knowledge was graced with a sign that read, "F U C K"

Since middle and late English was heavily influenced by northern Europe, many people were aware of the Swede word for cattle breeding. By the 16th century England had a wonderful, crude word for sex, and the English used it often.

"Fuck" is not an acronym. It is an old word in English, and it may be related to the Latin "facere" (to make, to do). Personally, I try not to use it in every day conversation. I like to save "fuck" for when it's appropriate.

Working in the oil patch introduces a person to this word in all its forms.

A green rookie returns home just at dinnertime from his first three month stretch in the bush. First words out of his clueless mouth:

"Ma, pass the fuckin' butter, please."

Mother bursts into tears and runs from the dining room. A younger sister and three younger brothers giggle uncontrollably. Father has a broad grin on his face controlling his laughter and says:

"I'll go explain to your mother, then you come in and apologize."

Clueless greenhorn looks up from his meat and potatoes:

"Whaaaat? I said 'PLEASE'!"

Farboy that was fuckin funny : )

I probably use the word once a week. I have to be really mad to use it and I don't really get mad. I do use 'damnit' alot

@jlooken: This is getting off point but I have to get it in, in this thread: As you mentioned, "fuck" is an acronym that is formed by the words, "Fornication Under Carnal Knowledge." Other words we commonly use evolved similarly. For example, "tits" (my favorite subject on TUSCL and elsewhere) is also an acronym. It comes from "Two In The Shirt."

It's like this....F#ck You, You F#cking F#ck

I was thinking someone should request Hotforwords star on YouTube to research FUCK. and tits. Two words I wouldn't mind hearing her explain. If she would be willing to do those two. Pun intended. :)
