The way I see it is that they are just words. Nothing more, nothing less. Words with particular meanings. Where did these meanings originate, though? They must have come from someone. Someone that gave these words, meanings. Meanings which are deemed 'inappropriate' or 'offensive'. But why is that? Why do we allow someone to tell us that some words are offensive, and others are not?

Bare in mind that in this politically correct society, many words and phrases are now being deemed 'inappropriate' or 'offensive'. Words such as 'brainstorm' are now apparently 'offensive' because they discriminate against people with mental health problems. Under this principle, I could deem the word 'clock' to be offensive, as if you remove the 'l', it says 'cock'. I could deem that to be offensive and discriminatory as it almost names the male genitallia and not the female genitallia. I could then tell other people, and they could spread the word, and then, surely, it would socially be deemed unacceptable to say it, right?

The point I'm trying to make is that these words have meanings that have derived from some twat that none of us will ever know.

As for the point regarding people who swear a lot, yes, that's true. But people also say the words 'and', 'like' and 'said' a lot. So your point is?

I swear because I want to. Because all I see it as is a word, made up of a few letters.

I don't particularly wish to follow some politically correct rulebook.

At the end of the day, it's a word. That is it. F-U-C-K. Oh look, I spelt fuck. Shoot me.
