I am pretty sure nowhere else in the world would need these censored but here in the US.

Admittedly, I don't know what it's like in other countries when it comes to profanity use, but "Motherfucker" is a pretty hardcore term no matter how you slice it. I wouldn't want my kids seeing a figure like that in the toy store, mainly because I don't want them to repeat it without understanding what it meant. Censoring Kick-Ass is totally silly, but "Motherfucker" isn't exactly standard dialogue, and why should it be? It's on the misogynistic, bad end of the sexual spectrum... But I digress. I know censorship is bad and all, but I think names like that are the reason parents freak out in the first place. How do you go about explaining that to an 8 year old?
