[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I guess my question is why is it that we give the "f" word or sh$% or whatever such power that using them becomes "not elegant" or that there's a "time and place." Yea, its what we've all grown up with, but why? Why does it matter? [/quote] Do you know what they mean, OP? They refer to intimate bodily acts, anatomical regions, or a deity that you would not otherwise describe in public. Do you throw around sexual or defecation-related terms casually to anyone? I hope not. Calling the Lord in vain may mean nothing to you, but it was especially shocking in past centuries, when most people in Europe and the colonies were expected to be devout Christian. If you believe that we can talk about anything in public, even sex or poo, then it logically follows that you would be unfazed by swear words. Please understand that most of us hold different views.
