RE: Why The Fuck Is Swearing Fucking Bad?
Lol, Manhattan. What would they call it? Manatee, manhole, Manitoba, man, woman, human, Manchester.... the list goes on and on. All those words should be eliminated, I guess.
I think kids will always swear amongst each other - idiomatic swearing. It's for them to know when there will be negative consequences whether it's swearing or not that's important. I know I swore a lot with friends, but I knew when to hold back too. Some people don't learn that.
It's insane to me that we live in a time when the word "man" is offensive. The woman that was on the show was asked about woman, and she says don't call me a woman, call me a person... but I guess in a society where we can identify as a hippo if we want to, that's to be expected.
You're right, some people won't exercise cursing etiquette, there's a place and a time, and some just don't care, but I see too that respect isn't as important as it once was, and I think that kinda goes hand in hand.
