I disagree. I think some people cannot handle the word. The word fook has evolved into a plethora of definitions. To accuse that the word is vulgar and derogatory, is only one the many definitions.

You generaly wouldn't use the word 'f**k' to describe having sex with someone you respected.

Wrong again. Me and my partners have both use that word without being disrespectful. Again, the word fook is just a word. Why others find it strong and offensive is beyond me.

Straight is just a word used to describe being attracted to the opposite sex.

The opposite of straight is "crooked". I find the word "crooked" to be more derogatory than homosexual.
What I find ironic is that people are using the words 'gay', 'poof', 'fag', and 'queer' are not being punished. These words are very degoratory and evolved out of discriminatory and bigoted origins. It is similar to calling an African American _______ or Jews_______ or Italians_______ or Asians_________, etc.
It is ok to use the words 'gay', 'poof', 'fag', and 'queer' since they are derogatory and steeped in bigotry. But, use the word fook, then all hell breaks loose and punishment is implemented.
