 Dear everyone...

Please stop trying to say a different word then the word you mean to say in order to avoid filters.

I used to do it too. I get it. Then I realized that it wasn't helping the people who for whatever reason want to avoid those topics. 

I thought I was being cleaver. I wasn't. It's an act of deception. No more, no less. You may not like that people filter out those words but it's not up to you what people want to avoid and what they don't.

So stop it.

Thank you.
