ELI5: Why do bad words exist?

Seriously explain like im 5.
gpt
Some people don't like to be reminded gross or bad things exist. Some people don't like you making fun of them, their family, their religion etc. So they don't use the words that do that. 


We end up using the words because words are used to explain to other people things like how we feel. If we feel *really* strongly about something, we may use a bad word so the other person is shocked and pays attention. They mean you feel so strongly you're willing to use words most people don't want to use.
