I really enjoy cursing. I know a lot of people don't like it. How do you feel about it? Do you find it really unattractive in the opposite sex?
Just wondering.

Considering the whole point of cursing is to be offensive in one way or another... yes, yes I do.

Cursing? I don't give a fuck.

I couldn't imagine being with a woman who didn't curse.
Well, at this point, I can't imagine being with a woman period, but she would have to at least tolerate my cursing. Most of the women in my family curse, so maybe it's genetic.....

Unless it is attached to the stigma of women having to be "prim & proper" (?)
Anyway, I'm not bothered by it. Although I do find it unattractive in some cases, specifically if it's used too often in a sentence and sounds unnatural. Or even the cuss words used; there are a couple I find that are more distasteful than others.

why would anyone be offended by words of any nature, its all societies conditioning regarding politeness in the face of an authority or people who may be too weak to handle it, but really its supression of words that should rightfully be accepted like any other word ...
fuck = oh no or sex
sex = people going at it
people going at it = horizontal challenge
its all the same ..
shit = oh no or pooh, pooh is a natural part of digesting ...
and why should anyone be offended by a word, it just seems so unfathomable to be offended by a bunch of letters that create some meaning or expression ...
its actually pathetic if you think about it hard enough
