Put The Soap Down Ma!

A new study on swearing, found it’s actually HELPFUL in lots of different ways.

1) It helps us express anger, frustration.

2) It helps us express joy.

3) It helps us deal with pain.

4) It helps us connect with each other.

5) It can make you more convincing.

They also found swearing isn’t considered as vulgar as it once was. And it used to be seen as a sign you were uneducated, or had a poor vocabulary, but that’s not really true anymore either. That said, they do admit you still have to be careful about WHO you swear around, and what the context of the situation is. There are still lots of times when it’s seen as offensive and inappropriate.
