Why is simple: MobileRead is trying to be "family friendly", and some posters have kids who read it with them.
The simple test is "Is the word one you would use in front of a small child?" If it isn't, perhaps you shouldn't use it in a post on MR.
There will be areas like the Politics and Religion section where we assume strong language is likely, but that is an opt-in section where it's a reasonable bet that kids won't be involved.
And unfortunately, some folks on MR who are legally adults
do behave like children. Age and maturity are only loosely related.
