    English is my second language, and culturally where I’m from swearing is pretty normal and nobody gives a fuck anyway.

    It’s only swearing because at some point someone decided it was bad language, and if you pay close attention, a lot of them go with “taboo” topics like sex and religious items. And then everyone proceeds to substitute them like fuck/fudge, shit/shoot, bitch/bench which IMO, you might as well have said it, everyone knows that what you were thinking.

    Language is language and sometimes a good choice of colorful expletives is what drives the meaning. Getting offended by swears is a sign of fragility of the mind.

      People honestly get offended by someone having a different opinion these days even. Fragile minds everywhere. Or perhaps more like fragile egos.
