Swearing
So, some say that swears are words, nothing more, and some say that they are rude, cruel, and that the people that say them are the same. But in the end...... They are just words. Saying them isn't the problem, I think. It's using swears to insult others that bothers people, including me. Cursing when your angry or you stubbed your toe is fine, at least that's my opinion. I don't have a problem repeating swears, like they're forbidden words or something, that will send me straight to hell, or heck, as others prefer. I just have never been allowed to use swears at home, so I automatically don't use them anywhere else, and nobody has a problem with that. But I really don't see a big deal in swearing, maybe that's just me, but I think they're just words. Why the heck were swears invented if they're so bad, anyway?

Hey Claire
I am against swearing to look cool, but as an expressive form I view cursing as a sign that you have strong feelings on a topic. There may be a day when swearing will be integrated into common speech, but until then, I'll try to keep it to a minimum. In some cases it can seem as though you have no eloquence and MUST resort to swearing to get a point across. I hope to never be labeled as such a person.
With Regard,
Derek
