Either the swear filter isn't working, or that word is wholly inoffensive.

The word is offensive, but maybe it has been overlooked.
Show me a gay man who gets offended at being called a poof, and I'll show you someone who was dropped on their head as a child.
I was dropped on a concrete floor as a baby. Explains a lot huh?

No, but a straight man being called a poof can find it offensive.
Do you see?

depends on if it is used in a derogative manner...
there are a few words that were once used to offend, but are now used on the whole with no offence caused (I'm not stupid enough to repeat any of them), yet these words still can cause offence if taken the wrong way or if said/written in an offensive tone/manner.

OK, experiment no.1. Call me a poof. See if I get offended.

Regardless of who would find it offensive, my point is, it isn't an expletive.
If I called someone a foul smelling fatuous oaf, I'm sure they could find it offensive, but that doesn't make it expletive, which was my original point.
