I know its bad, but... its a vice. 🙁

Why is it bad?

It's just words. The only reason words are "bad" is because we define them as such.

because i am a lady. I try to prid myself on being "lady-like" or proper. I don't want to have the mouth of a sailor.

I look down on people who dont swear.


See, there is a fine line between the occasional cuss word and "f" this and "f" that, where every other word from ones mouth is a swear word.
 
it's funny.. I think most people I know swear more at work (when I worked in an office) than they do in 'real life'. I sure I know don't swear very much, unless I'm around peope who specifically expect it.

I think you missed my point. What if instead of a tree being called a tree it was called a fvck? And fvck was called tree instead. So then the filters on these boards would filter out tree as "bad language" but not fvck.

I didn't miss your point, i understand that they are just words, but I know how i respond to other women who swear and as much as i should not care about what others think but i do.
Words are words are words and we as a society think they are bad or not, but that is way our culture is.
