CMV: “Swear words” shouldn’t exist anymore.

Honestly they never should have existed in the first place in my opinion. What I mean by “they shouldn’t exist”: the media censorship and disciplinary actions (schools mainly) regarding swear words should be eradicated. Our prejudice against certain words is stupid and trivial. It’s such a dumb way for kids to get into trouble at school. I get that they aren’t allowed because most swear words imply something inappropriate, but by banning words you just make kids so much more eager to say them. The part that pisses me off the most about censorship of swear words is how the severity changes from word to word. Like some shows can say words like damn and ass, but not words like fuck-that just doesn’t make sense.

Sorry for the tiny rant...
Anyways change my view.

The idea of swear words and telling kids not to say them at the risk of "trouble" is just to train them to be civil speakers as they grow up. No matter if we classify certain words as such or not is irrelevant because there's a time and place for every kind of speech, and most times do not call for excessive use of crude language. If we start allowing young children to familiarize themselves with regularly saying swear words, then they will continue that behavior through adulthood. In addition, kids need to be taught that bad behavior has consequences. Fighting and violence are not the only things that can get someone in trouble with the law as an adult, so why not instill rule following as a skill with kids?

When you're an adult, nobody cares anyway. Even on basic cable are shows that don't censor words like bitch or shit. Some even allow nigga/nigger depending on the context in which they're said. The reason you don't hear "fuck" specifically a lot is because America is prude and afraid of sex, not because fuck is such a scary awful word.

I just started a new internship in a large corporation, and at the office when we're talking amongst ourselves in the department we say whatever we want. When we're in a formal meeting, though, everyone cleans up their vocabulary just to be professional, not because we're gonna "get in twuble".
