This isn't an answer to the question.

Smug responses like this just means you don't actually have a point.

How does it not answer the question "why would women avoid fu over foo"? I thought it was clear that "fu" means "fuck up" or even "fuck you", a sexual swear word, while "foo" means nothing at all.
