I use them all the fuckin time because to me they are not bad words, they wont make you go to hell, or heaven but words are words. It's just like convincing a toddler that cookie, cake, banana, apple, and all the other regular normal words we use are bad. So what the hell? just about anybody can say that any word is bad but these so called cuss words are not bad, nor are they good. They're just words! If you have any problems and want to try to convince me other wise feel free to hit me up at my email address. But I'm telling you all now...trying to convince me that a "bad" word is a cuss word and not just a word in general...Good luck because I have my own beliefs!

There is no point in cursing and int those situations where you stub your toe or whatever you can just say a less offensive word such as danget or flip. I believe that my life has been better because i have always been taught in chuch to not curse or use profane language and i plan to follow that advice. and if you were wondering i got to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (aka the Mormons).

Words, their meanings, and the feelings they evoke are culturally constructed. The world "fuck" is offensive because weʻve made it that way. No word means anything inherent of itself.

I first looked at the word “swearing” and saw that “to swear is to utter profanity”, so I had a look at “profane” because profanity is to be profane. Looking at the meaning of profane you will see it is to be “vulgar” and there I found what I was searching for. The following two sentences sums it up quite nicely: “Spoken by or expressed in language spoken by the common people” and “Marked by a lack of good breeding; boorish“. Regards, Well lets see what a dictionary have to say about profanity:

Is that similiar to the same moral authority that tells us we can't call people faggots? ((The "Other" F word) Or call African Americans "Blacks"? Oh..wait..that's not a moral authority. That's the Fucking Political Correctness Police. (FPCP). But they are ok, right? I mean...let's not get carried away here. We can't have people spouting fucking shitty obscenities like "fag" or calling people "blacks" can we now? That would be wrong. That would be ignorant. That would "un-enlightened". But using the word "fuck"? Shit...that just shows how fucking cool you are. “or because you feel it’s immoral to use words that aren’t sanctioned by some random moral authority?”

I'm 51 and in my day it was considered a VERY powerful and offensive word. These days it's thrown about like any other word in the English language. AND it's used quite liberally and out of context. When you can't think of a word to use then just substitute the 'F' word. That seems to be the modern mindset. Use it only when it's necessary but don't use it for every other word because you can't think of anything intelligent to say. Then it just becomes white noise.
