The voice-to-text feature is very useful, but every once in a while when sending an SMS or email message to a friend, I want to really let loose.

However, Google, in their defense of my virginal eyes, replaces such words with hashes (####) if it recognizes the word at all.

How do I turn off this "feature"?

I am interested to know if this is possible, I haven't found a way. I think you should use #### in the title too :) – Ryan Conrad Aug 18 '11 at 18:01

There is a checkable/uncheckable option called Block offensive words under Settings->Voice input & output->Voice recognizer settings. This of course only works with the integrated Google voice recognition, but I assume that's what you're talking about :)
