Profanity
User-submitted comments that contain swear words or slurs are classified as profanity. Common techniques include “cloaking” works by using symbols and numbers in place of letters. These bad w.o.r.d.s are still recognizable by the human eye, though are often missed by website monitors due to the misspelling.

Famous quotes containing the word profanity:
“Nothing, neither acceptance nor prohibition, will induce a child to stop swearing overnight. Teach your child respect for himself and others, that profanity can hurt, offend, and disgust, and you’ll be doing the best you can...And save your parental giggling over mispronounced curses for after the children’s bedtime.”
—Jean Callahan (20th century)
