Abstract
We used language processing analyses to cluster 8,443 taboo words that 900 participants generated when asked to list the 10 taboo words they used the most. A total of 1,062 words recurred more than once. Out of six clusters, five (Bigotry, Body, Family & Emotions, Condescending, Morality) showed gender differences.
