Do you like to curse or using bad language in your conversation? I had a friend who love to curse. each time he open his mouth he always using some kind of bad language. I asked him why he did that? he said that he didnt really mean that. He just can't help himself. Its doesnt really matter with us, his friends. Cause we know he didnot meant what he curse. But trouble always follow when he met someone new specially girl he like. I rarely curse. I only use it when I am real angry or upset about somehting. How about you?

Well i do have a friend who does curse alot whenever he opens his mouth curses flew like tornado coming to your way and you know what same is the problem with him aswell whenever one argues he says he can't control it has become habbit now.He got trouble once speaking that language in front of professor but he excused as it wasn't intentional even professor realized that and told him to change this habbit of this ,but i think now its impossible.I rarely curse anyone when i am having conversation with anyone though when i sms my friends i start it with cursing them

Brain teaser, my friend is just like too. If your friend can change his bad habit, you should PM me to let me know how. I can teach my friend then. :)

Erm,I actually do curse when I speak.Sorry people but I am trying my best not to use it.I have kinda reduce it so far but still trying to kick it off.It's just that at times when you are pissed off with something,the first thing you want to is start cursing and swearing.My brother too has advised not to use it.We pray and eat with the same mouth.I am trying my best.Thanks for posting this topic friend.

Dear friend, I do rarely do curse. But there are times when my patience went so dull and I do cursed and found it too bitter. As one the words slipped out cannot be taken back. Hence I hope each words used should be well thought. Even though at certain times it may be not be possible when one may not be able to control his anger or emotions. I feel it depends how much impact that curse makes on others too. I do hope not to curse any even accidentally.

I do not curse as a rule becuse I think it shows ignorance and I would rather be thought of as being intelligent.I have said a few words when I was very angry but I have learned to curtail those in public. I have a large vocabulary and can find words that Ineed to conbey myanger without resorting to cuss words.

I am a girl and in our country people consider you should mild before peole as a girl,when I heard someone curse,i often felt bad when I was a child,but now I think it is nothing,you can curse when you are so angry that you couldn't rease yourselves,but I don't like any people using bad language inthe public.I use bad language when i am tierd or i don't satisfy with something,but it not often,overall,i wish people don't curse any more,and so do i,for it make a lot of questions,if we are not pleased we curse to somebody,he may become angry though he is happy a little time ago.

I've noticed that seems to be the trend with younger people nowadays. It seems like every other word is a curse word in casual discussions. I work out at a local university and I hear a curse word on average of every 30 seconds. But, I don't talk that way because there's no reason to. I mostly use curse words when I am angry, like you said. It's a way to emphasize my emotions. Using it the way that your friend does makes the word meaningless and the conversation silly.

I curse when people curse at me. To make them understand that it is not the place for cursing. And to show the person that if i want, i can do exactly the same as he does.

For me it depends. If I am not angry at that time even if people curse me, I will not curse back. But if I already mad, maybe my curse vocabulary will be much worse than that people. :D

On occasion, but not that much. Mainly when it's funny, or if I'm upset.

I try my hardest not to curse as I don't want to curse around my kids. My 4 year old daughter has heard curse words from the kids in the neighborhood and I hate hearing those words come out of her mouth she does not even know what most of them mean.

That the hardest being a parents secially when your children was small. You had to monitor them 24/7 in case they learn something not right from neighborhood. Tough job as a parents.

Hi...Call me old fashioned or whatever you like lol ...but im not into cursing or swearing....I think along the lines of if you cant find anything better to say than a swear word..then what a shame!....but for some people its just a way of life..a way of expressing themselves...and they cant talk naturally without using them...So each to their own i reckon...but no..not for me..

I admit I have my moments of cursing, especially when I am really frustrated and angry. It's like venting and feels better after you do it!

I actually don't curse at all. My parents never did either, so I didn't hear it at home like I'm sure a lot of kids did. And they didn't allow us to use language like that, and it stuck. Sometimes I'm tempted though, I have to admit that! : )

I seldom use cursing words. I personall do not feel comfortable with that and I think it's rude. But generally I can tell whether the people mean it. If they do not, it's just ok even though I feel a little uncomfortable with that. However if that person mean that, I will retort without hesitation.

I curse every once in a while. and even then they are mild compared to what i've heard come out of some peoples mouths.I have no problem with people that curse, just those that use curse words as the only ones in their vocabulary.I believe that theres a time when cursing is inapropreiate.
