I'm not going to lie, I cuss like a sailor. Might as well call me the captain. How much do you cuss(on average) daily? Do you like cussing or has it just become a part of the norm for you? Talk here about your views on the words that used to be categorized as 'vulgar', that are now a part of every day speech.

I have to say I swear a lot too. Its just part of my normal everyday language. I don't see it as an agressive thing as I use it all the time. Some of the worse words I use only when I am angry but you cna pretty much guarantee I will use a swear word in most sentences.

Oh yeah... swearing^^. Simply became a part of my everyday language xD. Not meant bad to anyone, mostly just swearing at my mistakes or the weather etc.^^

Everyone swears now-a-days! Is it the media to blame?


Sinist3r (42)   ranked 32,018 out of 35,199 in people  4 weeks ago

Media did probably help boosting the swearing in public xD

I can curse like hell.I don't do it in every conversation though.I do curse when I can't really describe how intense an object/person/situation affected me.it's like,"I really love this f***in dress!" I don't curse in all of the sentences coming out of my mouth.I don't curse in front of my superiors and elders.

I don't curse much but I have nothing against people who do. Cursing to me is simply a means of expressing oneself. If a person is used to cursing, it doesn't mean he's a bad person or what. Besides, we hear it everyday and it's become part of our daily lives already...so it's really no big deal.

The most true answer. . . I remember as a kid it was such a big deal to cuss. By the time I was in middle school, which was the 200's, cussing wasn't so bad. Around that time was the start of the craze that would become the "reality show." The main attraction of this kind of entertainment, was and still is, the beeping sound. That made cursing look even better. Now it is the 2000 babies' vocabulary. Seriously, I hear my nephews curse all the time. When I was 10 or younger, I didn't know the meaning of the words. I knew the words, just not the meaning. And my nephews know the meanings. I sound as if I am taking the negative side toward cursing, but I am really neutral. I love to curse, but only in settings that are appropriate.

Cursing is bad, really bad. Especialy if you really mean that. You shouldn't want to curse anyone that bad, of course jokes are acceptable. The latest cursing event that has spread worldside is the C.Ronaldo incident which I really do think that Pepe the witch is bad to accept money to curse someone.


chickenteeth (31)   ranked 29,153 out of 35,199 in people  4 weeks ago

I don't think cursing is bad just because the fact that you could say crap instead of the "s" word, and it still has the same meaning. They are just words. But with the same meaning. So it is literally saying the same thing, just with different words. So cursing is not bad, unless you are saying it in a derogatory way to someone.
