Does anyone else have a problem?
Last night the biggest foul-mouth I know told me that I "swear a fucking lot for a bird". I wasn't sure if I was supposed to feel pride or shame...
Also, "bird"? :eek2:

I throw in the odd swear word. When I start using too many I know I need to chill.
Out with the lads - Yes
It is a bit off when a woman swears a lot, but then I'm of an older generation to you lot.
No I agree...
I dont mind women swearing at all... but if its alot it can be a bit off putting...
It doesn't bother me who swears or how frequently as long as they're not always telling people to fuck off. I hate to hear aggressive swearing, I just like to pepper my conversations with expletives I think.
I'm trying to cut it down, before I go away as a youth leader in the summer. I don't think it's appropriate for me to be fucking and cunting.
but people use them to often at the wrong times and in all the wrong places.
when swearing is the accepted norm ...the words loose the power they once had.
the power to emphasise exagerate titilate or shock.
all you people who think it's ok to swear wherever and whenever are responsible for nearly destroying an art form ...an escape ...a release.
you have rendered it useless as a quite wonderful vocal paintbrush.
thirty years ago very few women swore ...occasioanly.
men didn't in front of women in a pub ...chances are you'd be asked to step outside for a thump.
then came what at the time was called ...alternative comedy ...the result was ...few comedians got laughs without a large degree of fuck fuck fuck ...and some then had to venture as far as cunt.
they were rolling in the isles!
now ...swearing has been taken from us ..by giving it to us so freely.
the good news is ...there are still places where saying ...fuck me! ...has effect.
if you were to say it in church ...or at your grannies house ...so these words do still retain some of their power.
so we can rescue swearing for the next generation by ...cutting out as much as possible now.
I never say cunt and rarely say fuck or bastard, i'm more a bloody and bugger type person.
I never ever swear infront of my parents though.
Haha, I always find it hilarious when people say things like "ooh, you bloody bugger". It's cute.
My Dad swears like a trooper but my dear mother hates it. Lots of f...lip, f...udge and cu...stard moments when she's around. Neither of my brothers really swear at all, I'm such a disappointment to her :crying:
I've heard my dad swear quite badly when he is with his mates but in my house no-one says any really strong swear words. Even piss isnt said or friggin. Haha I sound like a five year old. :angel:
Its not that cute coming from a 5 year old!
He said "bruddy hell" today when he couldnt hold his pen properly, so looks like im gonna have to tone it down even more.
Oh dear! He hasn't learnt the F word yet has he?
