Etymology and History: Motherfucker
Motherfucker sometimes abbreviated as mofo, mf, or mf'er, or just simply mfer, is an English-language vulgarism. It is a form of the profanity fuck. In common usage, it is rarely used to refer to one person having intercourse with a mother. Rather, the word usually refers to a mean, despicable, or vicious person; or any particularly difficult or frustrating situation. Conversely, it can be used positively, as a term of admiration, as in the term badass motherfucker (BAMF), meaning a fearless and confident person.
The word dates back at least to the late 19th century. In a 1889 Texas murder case, a witness testified that the victim had called the defendant a "God damned mother-f—king, bastardly son-of-a-bitch" shortly before his death. A later Texas court opinion from 1897 prints the word "mother-fucking" in full. In 1917 a U.S. soldier called his draft board "You low-down Mother Fuckers" in a letter. Wikipedia
