Does anyone know why "pawn" is considered an offensive word? It seems likely it ranks highly on the offensive word list because of chess engines.

I also noticed "knob" and "xxx" near the top of that list (and others) for which I understand why they are considered "offensive" in some contexts, but in code those are quite non-offensive (unless, of course, the context is offensive, haha).

Phonetically it sounds like "porn".
