You might care to “brush up your Shakespeare...”, as Cole Porter wrote in KISS ME KATE! Many of the “dirty bits” and “profanity” is clothed in words you’re probably unfamiliar with. And some of the jabs and jibes ( to use a term not in common usage in the 21rst century ) are allusions...things hinted at.
