I don't want other people making the determination for me what is or is
not a 'naughty word'. There are a whole set of words that I believe
might be considered inappropriate depending on one's religion that I
would not want removed at all.

Local mores are the responsibility of the Local Administrator. If you
feel certain words will be found to be offensive by your users then YOU
have to remove them.

We will not find a group of words that is commonly accepted as
offensive.
