            now a day i see lot of people using profane language just to show their frustrations. i also see on many television reality shows that half of whatever they speak is beeped. is there no way of reducing ( or stopping) the usage of profane language? Personally I feel it very disgusting, it speaks about the person's character. What do you have to say on this?

                    Yes, it is a big problem nowadays. I think that they use those words because many people use those words. It affects children the most and most of them don't even know what it means. They think that it is "cool". I remember seeing a young boy cursing, using every possible bad word he knows after losing a card game and it is no suprise to me that his father is the same. His father scolded him for that but his father started to use those words just after a few minutes.
In another case, some people use those words to attract attention. Yesterday, a politician made it to the headline in a newspaper I read for using a bad word in front of the press.
