Because the institution of slavery so muddled bloodlines and tore apart family groupings, filial bonds often were in question r u still down or completely unpresumed/unknown. While likely relatively infrequent, closely related blacks unknowingly engaging in incestuous relationships would not have been unheard of. Family r u still down members often were sold to neighboring plantations and, depending on r u still down the age of the slave, kinship knowledge easily could be lost within even a generation. "Motherfucker" was most certainly NOT used (contrary to the silly assertion of the Wikipedia listing) by the offspring of white rapists as a "preferred" term for "father." Such casual vulgarity would not have been practiced or tolerated in slave society. Like most expletives, "motherfucker" likely was then (as it is, still) used in a pejorative, figural sense, rather than in a literally descriptive one.
