Wow.. I looked this one up.. And apparently it was never from any acronym.. They believe it may have come from a German word but no one has of yet traced which one.. But it does not mean.. For unlawful carnal knowledge nor does it mean Fornication under consent of king. The most information on this is on the SNOPES.COM page. www.snopes.com
which probably won't show up as it uses the F word in the link. You'll have to type in the write link replacing the stars with the letters
as for the King one.. That one is about obtaining permission to have sex with your spouse.. And you can't fornicate within marriage.. You can fornicate extramaritally.. Or outside of marriage.. But its not fornication if your married.. And sex was not illegal in england....
the other one.. For unlawful carnal knowledge was about the placard hung over the criminal in stocks.. But they only listed the crime.. Never a "FOR"
so that's where it did NOT come from.. Bur really no one is sure where it did come from.
