    Ok so apparently people who swear are the ones who speak the truth.. (Ones you can trust) if you like. Im not too sure about this.. how do you feel about people that use swear words??? Ive no problem with it, If they know their limits.. I.e children, the elderly ect.. And is it considered more acceptable nowdays?

    Swearing can be great. Sometimes necessary I think.
    Some people can over-do it and it can sound needless and even a bit aggressive at times, but a moderate amount of it, particularly for deserving situations - fu*k yeah! Great for adding expression.

    Swearing is necessary from a legal standpoint - such as oaths. If swearing is good enough for the President or Supreme Court judge, it's good enough for me.

    It's a true sign of a lack of cunting vocabulary.

    Fine as long as it's not every sentence. I find I swear more if I'm speaking to someone I don't know well/find it awkward to talk to them. Like an anxious reaction or something.

    Read a book recently, it was described as "gritty" but frankly I was appalled at the language in it.

    "You big bastard". Oh, dreadful language! "You big hairy arse", "You big fecker". Fierce stuff! And of course, the f-word, the bad f-word, worse than "feck" - you know the one I mean.
    "Eff you". "Eff your 'effin' wife". Oh, I don't know why they have to use language like that. "I'll stick this 'effin' pitchfork up your hole", oh, that was another one, oh, yes!
    "Bastard" this and "bastard" that, you can't move for the bastards in her novels! It's wall-to-wall bastards!
    You bastard!" You fecker!" "You bollocks!" "Get your bollocks out of my face!"

    "Ride me sideways" was another one!

    It definitely is more acceptable in today's society. I swear all of the time and sometimes I don't even know I am doing it.
