This is such a silly thing to have to disable, but any time I was using voice to text, it would always put asterisks for swear words. This is on my Google Pixel 3 XL running Android 10 latest update of Feb 2020. The fix was to disable it in THREE spots, not just one, not just two, but all three. The three spots are: Gboard, Google voice typing, and in the text correction section.
Section #1 Google Voice Typing:
Settings > System > Languages & input > Virtual keyboard > Google voice typing and make sure that Hide offensive words is disabled.
Section #2: Gboard
Settings > System > Languages & input > Virtual keyboard > Board -> Voice Typing -> Offline speech recognition and make sure that Hide offensive words is disabled.
Section #3: Text Correction
Settings > System > Languages & input > Virtual keyboard > Board -> Text Correction and make sure that Block offensive words is disabled.
Section #4: UPDATED (Added April 21 2020)
If those three options do NOT resolve it, the 4th option you can use is to disable offline voice: Settings > System > Languages & input > Virtual keyboard > Gboard > Voice Typing > and disable “faster voice typing“.

THANK YOU!!!
No problem!
ty!
You are welcome!
Damn, of course, this does not work once i installed beta Android 11. Why do they make simple shit so difficult!
Or wildy change it between versions!
Nothing works.
Are you sure? What device, and version of Android? I just triple checked mine (Pixel 4a w/ Android 11), and it still works.
You still can’t type “fag”. Even when you do, gboard suggests “gay”. It seems the profane are running the profanity filter.
Interesting, mine still functions after this with my pixel 6 pro.
