Is swearing really any Good?

Bumping into a corner table, stumbling over a stone on the way or missing a bus, usually, are the situations in which we utter a profane or obscene expression. If we were to give a reason why we do that, we would probably be stumped for a valid reason. However, we’ve got to know why they come so spontaneously and why we are so frequent to choose them. We need to understand that swear words (that can have plenty of other socially acceptable alternatives) are not appropriate at all; they are just unacceptable. Their use triggers swift arousal at a certain level depending on its accentuality. This syntactic liberty is not only possible in English Language but all the rest humans put their thoughts in.

There is no escaping the fact that initially, it is due to the habitual practice of our own family members, be it nuclear or extended family. In an extended family, you may experience the frequency more as there could be more contributors to making the environment pretty conducive for its casual use. Initially, it is slow. You just hear them and for some time they remain in your head, then with the passage of time, you let them go out loud boldly and shamelessly. You feel cool to see them creating such a rhetorical effect. You then practice it outdoors, spoiling your mates and get even motivated upon compliments. Their use is not only to simmer down the rage; it is common when you are hanging out with your friends. Among peers, it is likely to lead a slanging match that could soon turn into a physical fight.

Strangely enough, girls these days have ever-increasing tendency to use swear words not any less than the boys and they don’t have to get into the flap to utter them; they do it just like that.  A survey carried out by the Social Research Council, Lancaster University and Cambridge University Press found that women swear more than men and are 10 times more likely to say s***. Girls being outdoors either for education or to earn their livelihood find swearing really effective in making a scary impression of them, making people, esp. the opposite gender feel hesitant to mess with them. However, this makes them have a bad reputation as well which they take as a compliment as in the rhetorical toolkit it is the chisel that gets them amazingly precise effect.

Talking about females in this context mustn’t give an impression of men having some legal right to use swear words, we all must feel uncomfortable not only when we spit some bad word out but when we hear such a thing. Do we really have to train our girls to use swear words to make themselves heard or to get them ready for the mainstream world outdoors just because some stupid westerner holding a Ph.D. in human psychology claims that swearing emboldens you enough to get your things done? Not to mention, swearing is beneficial to help you increase your ability to endure pain. Researchers also say that those who swear have comparatively a more fluent vocabulary than those who don’t swear. The question is, “Are we ready to replace the moral beliefs with this scientific crap in character building of our generation?”
