f instead of f***, fking instead of f**king, etc. for each form of this word





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}







0















In a nonfiction narrative where the character is constantly using this word, is it acceptable to use f, fking, etc., instead of the full spelling? The character is being quoted, but I just don't want to see that word as often as he used it, so I want to know if an abbreviation is acceptable.
