What's your Take? by chibaby5(f): 5:26pm On Jul 18, 2011
Firstly, ds topic can be moved to whicheva section da Mods deem appropriate, thanks.  cool

Now to the topic. Whats your take on bad language?

Guys, Do you or do you not mind your partner/wife using fowl/offensive/profane language?

Ladies, same question applies.

Well for me, in simple words, it simply sweeps me off my feet. Soo bad dat if I'm havin a convo with sum1 and suddenly they land da F* word 4 example, it takes me few seconds to re-connect and join the convo.  embarassed undecided

Was wondering if its just me. your views will be appreciated, Thanks   smiley
Re: What's your Take? by Omolola1(f): 5:33pm On Jul 18, 2011
I don't approve of anyone close to me using bad language

Online, i could be nasty, whatever! but on the real side, my friends know me, I hate using bad language!
Though, i admit there are times one would be tempted to use it

I don't fancy bad languages either.
Re: What's your Take? by chibaby5(f): 5:37pm On Jul 18, 2011
@Omolola1

So basikly u swear when ur angry for example??
Re: What's your Take? by BABE3: 5:49pm On Jul 18, 2011
Bad languages---well, well, well, Gold help me--I LOVE THEM! They give more spice to the convo. I say them almost all the time. I also get very creative with them. cheesy

grin. "4uck" is my main thing-- "Sh1t", "Bullsh1t", "Nigga" (I don't consider it as bad word--but people do undecided ), I don't use B1tches---I just find it very repulsive.

I really, really, really, restrict myself on here on the "profanity" level.

If I may ask, wat is there to love about dirty words? Is it dat u do not have any words to put ur points accross?
Secondly, U sound very proud about it as if its equivalent to gettin a 1st class degree? Does it make u feel good about urself or sumfing?
Re: What's your Take? by chibaby5(f): 6:01pm On Jul 18, 2011
@BABE!

U mentioned dat people consider swear words as bad words and u dnt.
If I may ask AGAIN lol, Do u pray? If yes, U swear too when u prayin to God? Like God wat da 4ckk?, Or God pls help me pass ds 4cking exam. U are the Alpha and the 4kking Omega? 

Or mayb 2 your parents, u go ds way , Mum u cnt bliv wat happened today shiittttt! sum bludclot razz ediot wnted to knock me ova. Since u consider these as good words  undecided

I really don't know how to answer that question.


chi-baby:

Is it dat u do not have any words to put your points accross?

Nah--Far from that. My vocabulary is quite oRn point. An addition(s) to it isn't such a bad idea.  cheesy


chi-baby:


Secondly, U sound very proud about it as if its equivalent to gettin a 1st class degree?

LOL-- Well, well, well, it's not. I'm just being honest about the fact that I use them. It' s not like I'm "PROUD" of "it". I know it's bad---but oh well.


chi-baby:

Does it make u feel good about urself or sumfing?  

Nah--again, far away from that. It's a bad habit I picked up and I'm finding it very hard to let go. lol-- I've gone years without using bad languages, so----no big deal. When I'm in a formal setting, in presence of elderly people and all that---I don't use them.

Lmao @ bolded. . . . i can just imagine someone praying like that grin grin grin

@ op well. . . i used to swear at a time i my life. Looking back now i think why i did swear then was because swear words were very good for expressing my anger. . .and i was pretty much angry most of the time undecided . Thankfully i've stopped now cheesy . I don't like it either when people swear around me. What i do for my friends who swear is that i smack them whenever they swear. It has really helped them control it and at times we even turn the smacking into a joke.

Lol---How am I contradicting myself? You're the one in a confused state of mind here.

I wouldn't mind, so far he knows where to use them.


chi-baby:

I did. I didn't proof-read the post but it was clear enough that I was referring to "Nigga". I put the parentheses right next to the word "Nigga" before I even put the "comma". I put the parentheses in the sentence before I talked about the word "B1tches".

Re: What's your Take? by MrsChima(f): 6:36pm On Jul 18, 2011
My take on it that grown people are grown and they can express whichever words they want.  My husband doesn't dictate to me what words I should say nor I dictate to my husband what he should say.  We both have COMMON SENSE and know when to use it and not to use it. 

It is not that complicated and should be an nonissue.   My advice to those who doesn't like "bad" words do not hang around people who uses them.  Simple. 

Babe

If your man doesn't mind you using "bad" words that is okay I am sure you know when you around business or appropriate audience you wouldn't use them.  I am sure of it.  Don't sweat it baby girl.

Nah--Yes, I do love using bad words, but I'm not gonna use them in all settings. It's common sense. I'm not gonna go for a job interview and be spitting "4ucks" and "sh1ts" and all that.

That was what I meant by "knowing how to use them".
