Profanity is simply unnecessary in all but an extreme minority of cases. I judge the people who use profanity liberally to be simply unregulated as to how they dish out their emotions. Either that, or they don’t spend enough time around kids. In the remote environment, you never know who will hear what you say.
- jayd16 4y agoIt's not a self regulation issue if they just don't consider profanity a big deal. Maybe a lack of creativity in vocabulary but that's a different issue.
- ironmagma 4y agoProfanity is kind of a big deal by definition though. What else makes a word profane other than the fact that it’s a bigger deal to say it than the other words?
- elsjaako 4y agoI agree that it's not strictly necessary. I've read a book that didn't use the word "is", and the book Gadsby is written without using the letter "e". So it not being necessary is not evidence that part of a language shouldn't be used, or that it isn't easier to communicate with that part of language. Sometimes curse words help express emotions.
