Not sure if this is right but I'll post it anyway...(yeah, call me a post whore).

The word "Fuck" was used as a means of announcing to the general population in the 17th century here in America, an indescretion of fidelities. We had stocks, located mostly in town squares, that people were placed in for punishment. A sign was hung around the necks of these people, informing the general populace of the "indiscretion" involved. If a couple were caught going at it and were not married, or were married but just not to each other, they were placed in these so-called "stocks" with a sign hung around their necks stating "FUCK". The letters stood for "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge" and has become slang for just about anything you want to use it for.

(Again, I'm not positive of the origins of the word, so don't flame me if I'm wrong. I've been wrong once or twice before, lol.)
