we see how people speak about this phenomenon, but don't follow the rules really
To be honest, it isn't obligatory to use words that can be regarded as politically correct. You know that now people don't filter thier speech at all. So, our manner of speaking has changed in process of time. It is obvious that  many people know of the existence of  the notion political correctness(by the way, it wa originated in America and it was widely spread in the last ten or fifteen years in many countries around the world.) but they don't have a desire to admit our moderm society needs to be controled. Surely, of one the main ways of contol is keeping some rules and norms that refer to our speech. I guess this phenomenon was invented not for nothing. That is why we shoud try to substitute the words containing obscene meanings for such words that are expressed in a quite soft manner.
