    Yep, I said that word on Reddit and got banned. They explicitly said I was banned because of the word ‘bastard’ when I use it to refer to a guy who cheated on his wife

      Well I can see why! It’s hard to know the man’s parentage just from that amount of information. Perhaps his parents were married at the time of birth.

      Any potential child born from the affair would be a bastard, though, unless the man divorced his wife to remarry.
