Well MILF was never used when I was in HS and that was in the mid 80's and I knew every fucking sexualy based term in the book. If it wased used it wasn't used by many and let's face it it's only become popular since the America Pie movies. And let's face it useage by the culture as a whole determines what a word means no matter what the original meaning was.
The word FAGGOT has been around forever too. Does it still mean a bundle of sticks? The word BAD 50 years ago meant just that. If you say something is BAD today it could mean it's good depending on the context. 200 years ago if you had PRIDE that as a bad thing(and I don't mean good either ) it meant you were vain and egotistical.
Do you eat geletain? Of course, but you call it JELL-O. Even if it's not the JELL-O brand name. Geletain was around long before JELL-O and in fact other flavored geletains are not JELL-O but it doesn't stop you from calling them that.
How about Kleenex? I bet when you need a tissue you ask for some Kleenex. If it's Puffs do you say "Hey moron I asked for Kleenex, not Puffs!" or did you REALLY mean you wanted a tissue. How many people use the word COKE when they REALLY mean ANY brand of cola?
