As I told my daughter, words and the connotation we place on them are interesting.
For example we could all get by (maybe not well but could get by) if we used the term BS in polite society. But if we spelled it out, i.e. what the B & S stand for we'd likely be criticized. On the other hand if we said, "male bovine feces" many of those same criticizer would think it cute and in the end (no pun intended) it's all the same stuff.
