The word f**k comes from medieval times. It literally means, Fornication Under Consent of King. As a guest in the castle, you had to have permission to have sex in the castle. To not have permission and do so was punishable by death as it was viewed as disrespectful. Once, and if, consent was given, a sash was hung over the door with the word F**K, so the guards would not storm in the room if they heard the commotion!
Lastly, the average man's goober is three times the length of his thumb. Quit checking guys!!
