But why does Nairaland have so many unnecessary and unreasonable censored words? I do understand that some bad language words should be censored for disciplinary reasons and correctness, but words that are politically, educationally, or morally correct should have been allowed: Such words include; GA'Y, SE'X, HOM'OSEXUAL, PEN'IS, VAG'INAL, RA'PE, LESB'IAN are all decent words that politically, decently medically, religiously, morally and socially correct; compared to the bad language words like: F***, S*IT, NIG**R, A*S, BAST**D, D*MN, etc Now, the prohibition to use the word SE'X (and replacing it with "Intimacy" in a section named "[b]SEX[/b]uality"; in other word, to have a section named SEXUALITY and yet forbidden to use the word SEX doesn't make sense. My honest opinion. |
