"Four-letter word" from Wikipedia


The phrase four-letter word refers to a set of English words written with four letters which are considered profane, including common popular or slang terms for excretory functions, sexual activity, and genitalia. The "four-letter" claim refers to the fact that most English swear words are monosyllabic, and therefore are likely to have four letters on average. This euphemism came into use during the first half of the twentieth century.

Common four-letter words (in this sense) include: shit, cock, fuck, damn, hell, cunt, piss, arse (UK), and twat. These, in addition to at least ten others (knob, dick, crap, fart, turd, wank (UK), pish, slut, tits, suck, spaz, wang, spic, joey, toss (UK), , mong, jism, muff, jizz), are widely considered vulgar or offensive to some degree.

Wow, thanks for the crazy amount of answers I got, so now I'll just say the question has been answered.  Whew, hard work answering everybody back.  So I could be working my way towards being a switch, or I could just be getting a little bit further into the passionate throws of my relationship.  Either way, everything is going well, and I couldn't be happier.  Don't worry, he's still very rough with me, we're just exploring the mental side a little more now.  Okay, I probably shouldn't be telling you all more than this, so I'll stop.  A girl can't just kiss and tell, ya know...
