Why would you want to detect that word? If you find it offensive, turn on the language filter in your interface options.

You might also find the addon "Eloquence" of interest.  One of its features is a "sanitizer" which attempts to clean up in-game chat.  Unlike the built-in profanity filter, though, it does so not by just hiding the words, but by substituting cleaner and/or fantasy equivalents.  So, for example:

"f*ck you" becomes "away with you"

"beat the f*ck out of" becomes "beat the snot out of"

"what the f*ck" or "wtf" becomes "what on Azeroth"

"f*cking around" becomes "mucking about"

"wtf is" becomes "what in the blazes is"

In a lot of cases, where the word is simply an emotional indicator, Eloquence removes it.  Thus:

"it's f*cking" becomes "it's"

"you f*cking" becomes "you"

It does this for a lot more than just the f-word.  Other examples:

"crapload" becomes "remarkable amount"

"bullsh*t" becomes "nonsense"

"the sh*t out of" becomes "some sense into"

"badass" becomes "formidable"

"huge-ass" becomes "gigantic"

"sucks ass" becomes "sickens me to the core"

Other modules of it will clean up grammar and spelling, make dwarves sound Scottish, make trolls sound Jamaican, expand game-specific abbreviations, and do other things.  Listening to the trade channel with it on is a trip.  :-D

LOL, old people were young once and believe me they swore too. No matter what they tell you now :) Also, why would you be embarrassed since you are not the one swearing?

See my "Thread to end all threads thread" for the answer to your question!
