This is true. And like ourselves, most may not know what the words mean.

I used to travel on occasion to Tokyo. On one trip I ran into a wedding party reception at the hotel. On the elevator I couldn't help but notice that one of the local guests attending the reception was wearing a tee-shirt with English on it: "ORGASM"

Aside from the shirt, he looked rather conservative. I doubt if he knew what it meant. It probably was a band name. Certainly not appropriate to wear to a wedding reception with the respective families present.
