The term "crap" is commonly believed to be linked to Thomas Crapper, a Victorian plumber who popularized the flush toilet, but this connection is largely a myth. The word "crap" actually predates Crapper and is derived from the Middle English term "crappe," which means "to pluck" or "to gather." Although Crapper's name became synonymous with toilets, the etymology of "crap" is unrelated to him. Therefore, while Crapper contributed to toilet technology, he is not the reason for the term "crap."

How did the word crap become crap?
The word 'crap' came from England [UK] as a euphemism for the word 's--t'. In Queen Victoria's reign, a one Thomas Crapper, invented the first system for flushing toilets. It was a gravity cistern made of cast-iron mounted approx 5 feet above the ceramic basin. It had a chain hanging from a lever, which when pulled, flushed the toilet basin. Thomas Crapper's name was moulded in the cast for all to see, hence when one needed to defecate, one would say that they needed to go to the 'Crapper', later abbreviated to ' going for a, or have a crap'. The term is still used to this day.

Is '' crap '' a profane word?
It's certainly not a sacred word, so it must be profane (that's what profane means--not sacred). However, many people would say that excrement in any form is not a polite topic for conversation, and "crap" does mean excrement. Impolite or coarse the word may be but it is not a shocking word to most people. It comes, in all likelihood, from the word "Crapper" a brand of toilet manufactured by Thomas Crapper and named after him.
