most Dutch (i’m belgian) and other non native english speakers will pick up english from movies, tv, music,…
so we hear **** quite a lot.
it gets a lot more common as a word for us, than for someone who is a native speaker and doesn’t hear **** in every other sentence when they hear english.
makes it a lot less harsh as a word for us I THINK.
my mate from new zealand was quite shocked with the lyrics of this “feelgood hit of the summer” back in 2015 when he came over for a summer of riding in the alps.
I hadn’t really given it much tought before he mentioned it, still sang along all summer tough :-)
