Well I am dutch and I notice after finding a place where a friend's name was blocked that you really have a list that is kind of.. Bad.

There are lots of words that are clearly not offensive except in an already really explicit use:

asbak - ashtray -> never ever used aso - short for "asocial person" and only ever used like it would be in english balen - I guess this is a translation by google translate from a version of "sucks", it is really just "to be fed/annoyed up with something" and is actually considered to be the proper formal way to say it. The other translation is a "bundle" in the farming sense (bundle of wheat). bedonderen - literary to cheat, but hardly ever (never?) used in an obscene way. belazeren - same as above, but even more formal. Used mostly by media to state "die politicus "belazerde" de boel" - that politician lied/cheated about things he said/did". besodemieteren/besodemieterd zijn - to "bugger" or "screw" somebody over.. But again not used in obscene sense EVER. beurt - Ok this can be used in an obscene sense. But it is also one of the 1000 most commonly used words in non obscene sense. "jij bent aan de beurt/het is jouw beurt" - it is your turn. "omstebeurt" - one after another. de hond uitlaten - this is a joke right? It's a common version of "my dad went to the store and never came back". But it still has the normal meaning of "walking the dog" - and there is no other way to say that dombo - lit. "dumb person" and in a joking not obscene manner (like one would say to a toddler after he did something stupid). droogkloot - someone who makes silly jokes gras maaien - mowing the lawn...??? hol - "cave" honestly used in the same sense as the english version. hufter - asocial person, often used by politicians. klootjesvolk - everyone who isn't a white collar worker. nicht - niece op z'n sodemieter geven - archaic to "blame someone and punish him for it" often as done by a parent/grandparent to a child opzouten - to go (away) ??? ouwehoeren - to chat ????????? publiciteitsgeil - yearning for public attention teef - bitch (but only used for dogs) vergallen - to mess up the atmosphere not used in obscene sense verkloten - to mess up something not used in obscene sense voor jan lul - saying that you went/are somewhere but have no purpose voor jan-met-de-korte-achternaam - same as above

And theren the worst:

anita - That's a girl name, quite offensive that you consider it obscene.

This repo's definition of obscenity includes discrimination of family status and neurodivergence.

So can we also add "zwarte" (black guy) to the list? As well as any name corresponding to sub sahara africa like "pete" which are typically used to describe male porn stars? The list seems to be really based on a patriarchic society where females are sexualized and males are above it all.

Discrimanation based on race or gender should never happen.
