I rarely swore even up until about a year ago. But something in my mind snapped and now I curse about once every 4 or 5 sentences when not in polite company. I didn't like swearing then but I don't really mind it now.

It isn't a problem.

It isn't a problem if you don't have a reason not to do something and then don't do it. Else you would be doing everything you didn't have a reason not to... but what if you didn't have a reason to not "not" do something?, but then you don't have a reason to not not not do something...

OK, he has not got an assertive personality. He cannot use skilful rhetoric to persuade people to listen to him and respect him. An easy way around this is for people to curse. It gets attention and can, when utilized effectively, show authority. It can stop someone walking all over you.
...what?

Seriously, what?

No, if you can't get people to pay attention to you or respect you by any other means, swearing isn't going to help. Though this may explain why you see it as a problem...

Swearing is a horrible last resort. That's a similar argument to saying; "well, if you can't get a people to agree on democracy, dictatorships are always effective."

If people don't respect rationality, they aren't going to respect rationality with swearing.

Don't get me wrong, if someone is capable of swearing, fine, whatever, go for it, just don't be excessive with it; but I don't see not being able to swear as a "problem".

Not a problem. I have two friends (who are twins) who refuse to swear and they're 4chan corrupted, play violent video games and come from a pretty normal family. Not a problem, just a lifestyle choice.
