Whats Wrong with Swearing?.. Why is it so often used ?... How did curse words come about ?..How many swear words do we say everday ?
Swearing or also known as foul language....Swearing originated from the natural human desire to exclaim things if things go wrong or hurt .. Derogatory descriptions,insults and exclamations were included along the way to verbally express upsetting emotions,especially anger..Sometimes these were aimed at other individuals or groups,or to no one in particular.
So why is swearing Bad?... basically it contributes to the decline of civility,also it offends more people than we actually think,this then makes others uncomfortable to be around us ..it is disrespectful of others,this can then possibly turn discussions into arguments..this is then a sign of hostility this can lead to violence..some people choose not to swear because it imposes a personal penalty,it sets a bad example,also it reflects ignorance and is a sign of a bad attitude...
