Khayr Posted December 11, 2013 Ah, so by being an academic you are excused from judgement. It is normal for you to curse but for someone like "classified", it is not acceptable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khayr Posted December 11, 2013 Btw, its just an observation. Who am I to judge? I am not an Academic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Huh? :confused: Of course not, what's unacceptable is cursing *at* someone here because it's disrespectful. General cursing is a personal decision... some people swear, others don't.

Khayr Posted December 11, 2013 Saff, Is cursing at a particular idea or proverb acceptable because its a personal choice and it is not against a person? SP, I am a Poet! Thank for the recognition. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said, that's for the person to decide. There are plenty of people who believe swearing is inappropriate in all contexts, while others have no problem with it. But my point is that swearing at a person is *always* inappropriate because it's about disrespecting and insulting another person, whereas swearing at objects or at situations or whatever doesn't affect anyone.
