don't like cursing..

I'm 16 and I don't curse ,(which is rare) I was taught it was bad so I just feel wrong doing it even though everyone else in the house does it. There are times I've really wanted to in order to get the point across that I'm *really* angry and disgusted but I just control myself. It only bothers me when others do it in certain situations but generally it does not bother me.
I curse a lot... the only person I don't curse around is my dad, because he gives me the evil dad glare... Much like the evil mom glare, only your stumach drops to your toes and you feel like you need to gasp for air. Now my mom and I go on swearing marathons... She taught me the art of swearing when I was little... Well didnt teach me, but she would say the German word for Sh!t (Scheiße) in the car a lot. Me being only 2 1/2 had no idea that it was bad, and would say it when ever my lego tower fell over....My mom stopped swearing for a while after that.
I don't like calling people that I like or love any curse words though, because it just seems rude to me. I hate it when people go these are my b!tches or something, because to me, those people are your friends... Now If Im driving or biking and some idiot cuts me off or something, then yes, they get called a dumb@ss or something because often, they don't know what incompetent means.

Words are words to me. People make themselves sound like absolute morons without using swear words all the time; I'm certainly not going to judge someone's intellect if they throw a swear in the middle of an intelligent sentence.
I restrain myself in polite company, although I'm rarely ever around it. I wouldn't say I swear a ton, but certainly a few times a day. Usually at a naughty horse.

. I wouldn't say I swear a ton, but certainly a few times a day. Usually at a naughty horse.).. I learned that quickly. Was with an old family friend and she was talking about someone, I would get all excited and said "You say that too??" :lol-sign: Reminds me of the time in elementary school when a bunch of my friends and I found out what that word C*nt meant and we would go around to the other girls we hated and say "C U Next Thursday!" with the biggest smile on our faces, ah how we were so proud and smug :rofl1:Depends on where I am, in a pub/around friends I swear like a sailor. Around my parents/younger brothers no way except the occasional **** it or crap.
Everyone just shut the **** up already!
lol. I don't really curse that much. Every once in a while I throw one in to spice up the conversation! lol. Or if I'm REALLY angry. I do say "Scheiß egal" ALL the time... but since it's another language most people don't realize i'm saying a cuss... lol *evil smirk*

I use them fairly regularly.
Then again I deal with a fair number of tradespeople and it's a fair bit more commonplace... things go wrong or you accidently add more work onto what you have to do or even something wasn't done right to begin with... and on the flip side when you'd done a good job at something... "f*ck that looks good" and so on.
I take it as they are words that are more expressive and work well in that sort of setting. I wouldn't use them while sitting at a board meeting or anything like that... so they do have there limits of usefulness though
If I'm on my personal time, people are always welcome to not listen to what I'm saying if it offends them.

'Dick Mitten' holds a special place in my heart too though

I don't swear and I'm 22 years old. Never have, likely never will.
Nobody ever told me not to, I've never been in trouble in any way for a foul mouth, so I have no idea why I never picked up swearing along with all my friends. It doesn't bother me in the least when others do it; often times I don't even notice. Nbc0 swears like there's no tomorrow. I'm so used to it that when she asked me to count how many times she swears in a day, I only caught maybe 3.

I think swearing is about respect, for others, yourself and the location.
My parents didn't swear around us kids, my mother probably never has, my dad well .................but not around us.
I don't swear to this day around my mother, not one word. I also expect our son (16) not to swear in our home, although I know that he does when out with his friends etc. He also knows that swearing in a public place is crude/rude and uncalled for. I catch him, he'll get his a$$ busted.
We don't swear around him, although now that he is getting older we sometimes slip. But other people were not allowed in my home or outside around him and swearing the big 4's when he was younger.
Personally I don't want to sit in a restaurant and listen to the next table yap with every 3rd word as being F this or F that etc.
I think it's natural as a kid/teen to swear when out with their friends etc, but as we get older, I think we start to realize just how stupid we sound when we over use the words.
My hub and I never swear at each other or call names, its respect.
I don't think its a big deal but there is a time and a place for it. And I can be very good at as well, so effective sometimes.
