What is your view on swearing?

Is it appropriate for girls?

Or no one in general?

Or does it just depend on the person or listener?

When I'm home, with my hubby and the kids are asleep, pretty much every other word between the two of us is an F-bomb. But anywhere else, swearing is a no-no.

I'm clean cut when I need to be professional, like at work. When I'm around my mother, I censor myself a little. Other than that I'm worse than a sailor on shore leave talking with a trucker.

lol, yeah. I was told I wasn't ladylike once...to which I replied "Who the F* said I claimed to be?"

I think it shocks people because I seem so sweet, innocent and demure.

It's relative.....almost anything is ok in moderation and in context as well as respect for others, to a certain extent. I'm not into being policitally correct but I can turn it up or turn it down depending on the situation.

That's what I was trying to say...but I'm not good at it, lol.

What gets me is how people get when you swear around children. Chrissake, people just aren't rearing their children right if they have to worry about them repeating everything they hear.

I somewhat agree...but then again there's a line to be drawn, there, too. Besides, it's their decision. My parents just tried not to say F* around me too much.

There are times when it's not appropriate, but most of the time I just have too much of a f***-it attitude to give a s*** about when it is and isn't.

Most of the time I cuss and don't even realize it, lol.

I think swearing is a substitute for more appropriate, descriptive, and thought-out words.

I'm sure I'll get sweared at for saying this- but it's my opinion!
