The only one I can think of is 'bloody' which is pretty mild. 'Bastard' perhaps not strictly sexual, although it's obviously sexually-related. I think you'll struggle apart from that because I think the origin is, as I say, related to prurient attitudes to sex. If you think about it, even saying 'sex' in 'polite society' will get a reaction, and 'vagina' is positively blasphemous. Even swear words that lose some of their currency like 'bugger' or 'sod' still have a sexual origin.

Edit: 'Damn' could be another possible mild one, although that proves the point because it's religion-related. I think you'll struggle to name a genuinely offensive swear word that isn't related to sex.

I'd argue that 'bloody' probably relates to a females 'unclean' time of the month.

Excrement

Both a noun and a verb, meaning excrement and to excrete, and also used an adjective, 'shit' is a true Anglo Saxon word. Curiously, the past participle of 'shit' was once 'shitten', as shown in Chaucer's General Prologue to the Canterbury Tales where he refers to the 'shitten shepherd and clene sheep'. Though we might expect this to have evolved into 'shitted', the more common form of the word in the past tense is in fact 'shat'. 'Shite' is an alternative form of the word, particularly used in Scotland, Ireland and Northern England.

Whenever I've seen skat porn (I don't make a habit of it!) it's always German.

'Shit' is still related to bodily functions, it's the same basic theme. Ooooh, no, we can't talk about going for a poo, we have to pretend that doesn't happen.
The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. The true measure of a man is this: how quickly he can respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give - Philip K. Dick.
