I simply say: "So what?"

Everybody has a different definition of vulgarity and what they personally consider what is vulgar and what not..

With all due respect, it's not their problem and definitely not their responsibility to decide whether WTF is vulgar or not..

After all, arguably, the vulgarity comes from the sentence "What the f--k", not "WTF" as "double u, ti, ef".

Acronyms can represent pretty much anything you want them to represent; WTF = "Welcome To Facebook", "Wait 'Till Friday", etc..
