On one hand, I HATE hearing Hollaback Girl on the radio when almost half of the song is bleeped out, on the other hand, I prefer having the choice to get music like Bark at the moon that doesn't drop the "F" bomb as much as some chickens cluck.
I like "choice" when people can obtain either version, as I don't like hearing racist words, female slurs, or the "F" bomb, but I respect others right to buy such "music."
The artists wrote, performed, and recorded it intentionally. Censoring the material doesn't work because in your mind you've already substituted the beep or replacement word with the original anyway.
If you don't want "dirty" things in your music, you don't have to listen to it.
Don't want your kids to be corrupted by words that they'll hear at school and in LIFE anyway? Don't have it around the house.

I think it's good to have a clean version for radio play. I also think it's stupid to play the non-clean version and edit out the swearing when a clean version is available. Like when I had sirius and they would play an edited Fuck You instead of Forget You, never mind the fact that they should be able to play whatever without worrying about the FCC.
It's very rare (maybe once a year or so) that I listen to the radio. The ads get in the way of the music.
I'm for uncensored music that the artists originally recorded. So I don't buy a lot of albums from Sprawl-Mart. Though I did dig within one of their $5 music bins and found Alice In Chains "Live" album in all its uncensored glory.
I do like it when artists like to play coy and slip in a few double-entendres. Check out some ZZ Top or AC/DC for examples. :-)

Bowel-curious? Really?
Anyway, the correct questions should be, "Should people have the right to ask another person to take a shit on them," and "how about allowing someone to shit in your mouth?"

I don't care what you do to each other. Just make sure you pervs clean up after yerselves after you have your murky brown fun!
It's not MY cup o' tea but as long as all parties involved are consenting and of legal age, and no one gets hurt then how you get your rocks off, and with whom is none of my business.
