jenn, i am but one member, but i do not find curse words offensive in the slightest. oftentimes, though, they are used to facilitate what may be offensive statements. i think the offensive statement and the 'curse word' are so oft associated that when the latter does appear, we react to it as if it were the prior. it is not always so in my mind.
may i see it?
how many stop signs in your collection thus far, madam josie?
And I surely don't have any problem with the fact of posting photo with the F word. It's even strange for me to use something like "F word"... Probably because english is not my mother tongue, it doesn't have the same meaning for me.
And I also believe that taking a photo of words on a stop sign or a wall doesn't mean you believe in that statement. It can be taken as a documentary work.

I think that's six stop pics so far.
All within a few miles of my house. Many more to discover.

Personally I have no prob with hearing or seeing the F word if it's relevant to making a statement.
I agree with that statement too.
