Take the following as truth: It is many years since my contemporaries and I got a kick out of seeing even the bowdlerized f**k in print (in Partridge's Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English , 1935), and fug in Mailer's The Naked and the Dead allowed prudery to mock itself.
Then the following statement: "There are many times when the Dictionary of Unconventional English was referred to." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: Inconclusive
