Why use *kitten*?

Sometimes on posts I see people sub *kitten* in their sentence. For example:
I plan to totally kick *kitten*

Why do some people, I'm guessing younger, say *kitten*? Is it a funny way not to curse?

    No. If you type a cuss word and post it, the MFP system automatically changes the word to kitten. Try it.

    The filth filter was changed on April 1st. I first thought it was a joke, because who the *babysloth* finds kicking *kitten* funny? Or eating *kitten*? At least eat a cat, it's had a life.

    They need to make this better. The Something Awful forums used to (idk if they still do) have specific filters. The best was "loving caress."

    I like the *kitten*. I think mpf made the right choice.

    Credit where credit is due. It's one of the EXTREMELY few good things done by the coders of this site in recent history.
