This can easily be summed up with a little exercise: Next time you are talking to your mom, boss, grandma, teacher, aunt, blah, blah blah... Please have a mic ready then tell them to "Fuck off" in a non-joking, angry voice... then, post the capture wave file of your words and their reaction for us all to hear.

If you're not willing to, for each and every one above; why is that?


Hey man I think you missed the point. I thought I made it clear earlier in this thread that I'm not an anarchist who thinks people should be able to say anything without any consequences. I think it's wrong to deliberately insult other people, I just don't think that any given word is wrong no matter the context. I wouldn't tell a family member to "shut up" or "go away", nevermind "fuck off". The former pair of phrases mean can mean exactly the same thing, yet they aren't swear words... hence my opinion that the hurtful sentiment is the only thing wrong, not the word.

I do swear in frustration around my parents and brothers btw, like if I stub my toe on something. That would be anything from "shit", "fuck", "bugger", "bastard"... or perhaps all of them combined if it *really* hurt Big Grin I wouldn't swear around elderly relatives though, because even though I think they're misguided to object to my swearing, I expect they are past the point that I can reason with a belief they've been indoctrinated with for 70+ years. A boss or teacher? Well I think that's rather unfair since they have the power to terminate your employment or education. If they made it clear they didn't want me to swear then I wouldn't have a lot of choice in the matter would I? It would be nothing to do with saving their feelings... more like looking out for myself.
