When I was a little girl, about the age of about seven, I came home one day with some new words that my best friend Cherry's older sister had taught me. I loved new words, and so I wanted to try them out, well I was very confused when my mother almost dropped the bowel in her hand when I said them. For my mother's credit she didn't overact, she very calmly explained that these were words that were "bad" and should never say them again.
Fast forward...
Yesterday I was in Taco Bell getting some lovely health food, when the gentlemen next to me remarked on how there was a lack of a certain hot sauce. And in this question addressed to the room it seemed as a whole, he choose to lace it with words that used to make a sailor blush with shame.
No one batted an eye.
Why is now okay to swear in public? Fifty years ago if you swore in front of a lady the rest of the men in the room would take you outside, now the women swear sometimes as bad or worse then the men.
Am I being to sensitive, well i have always thought I should just ignore it, but, why should I have to?
I am tired of so many people swearing against their mother and worse my God and letting is slide. I don't want to get used to it dang it!
But I am a loss as to what to do about it.
