Poll: Do You Swear?

[goldenheart323]

I swear quite a bit but why does it offend people?

For all we know, 'dog' could be an offencive word in the future...... :/ (bad example but you know what I mean!)

I never really understood why the society chose to treat several combinations of sounds as something rude and inappropriate. Seems dumb to me. "Fuck" is nothing more than a sequence of sounds. By default, it is no more offending then "Duck" or "Luck". You change 1 sound - boom, you are being frowned upon. The whole phenomenon of "cursing" looks like just another one of those useless, meaningless limitations that society is forcing on people. Fuck society, I say.

So, to answer the topic question - yes, I do "swear"

I tried explaining it, but when I proofread it, it sounded so simple; like I was talking down to you guys and everyone else who "doesn't get it". It's considered offensive because that's what people are taught. That's why. Words mean things. Some meanings are considered offensive. What's not to get?

Just look at cursing as a tool society uses. It's a simple test of character. The amount of cussing shows how much respect you have for those around you and how well you can control what you say. Some people, like you, don't care about that test. Others consider it very useful, especially when meeting someone for the 1st time.

Isn't that actually saying you never swear since you kinda Bleeped out all the hot sexy swearing.

No, I was actually going to say "asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk yeah, I asterisk asterisk asterisk..." and so on, but I'm just too goddamn fucking lazy ;D

Swear words are just words that have meanings. I use them when they are needed.

I agree with the OP, I hate people who swear all the time its annoying and to me it makes you sound like you have a 1-digit IQ.

 

[Firia]

Yeah, I swear occationally, but then, probably more than I think I do too. There's a time and a place.

 

[Lord Beautiful]

I use it plentifully yet tastefully. And plentifully.

 

[ottenni]

[Lambi]

Sometimes, yes. Sometimes I replace the word fuck with fudge. Dunno why. More fun to say fudge then fuck.

 

[KiLl_RoY]

I sure do, but i try not to do it in front of ladies and people that need a certain level of respect.

 

[crudus]

like a fucking sailor. I don't do it in every sentence like OP said but it is quite frequent. It also depends on the crowd I am in more than anything.

 

[EightGaugeHippo]

I swear all the time, but not on the internet and in forums and stuff.

 

[monkey_man]

swearing is a great way to relieve stress

 

[Julianking93]

I've never said one fucking curse word in my life!

 

[obex]

[apelsz]

No, I don't. Not all the time, at least. I still do sometimes though, because I'm human.
