She also determined that the words "Higger, Bigger," could be viewed as a mask for the original terms.

Yeah, and the word "fornicate" could be viewed as a mask for that other F-word, but should we ban the word fornicate because of this?

No, but shouldn't we ban buck, cluck, duck, luck, muck, pluck, shuck, schmuck, tuck, and truck?

Not to mention Huck Finn, of course.
