I feel like the days of pearl clutching over profanity are on their way out. There is always a time and a place for it, but I grew up hearing "fuck" come out of my drunken relatives every other word. My parents didn't say it, and they didn't let me say it, but the only real weight the word ever had was that it was cool and exclusive to adults.
One of the biggest culture shocks I had when moving from the US to Canada was how much more laid back everyone is up here over profanity in general. Almost everyone uses it, very few people (save for maybe the elderly) get uppity when they hear it, and I've heard it used freely on FM radio many times. I still think it's trashy to fly a FUCK TRUDEAU flag or decal on your car for everyone to see, but nobodies up here clutching pearls. They just think you're a dick.
Not sure why it's still such a big deal in many parts of the US.
What's interesting is, traditionally in language, once forbidden words got ran out, there were still other bad words left to enter the lexicon. "Damn" used to be a genuine curse. My grandfather survived WWII and proudly told be people of all the bombs he dropped, he never dropped the F-bomb.
What's next? There's no new forbidden words. Nothing left in the back of the store. Our ability to run through words outpaced our ability to make bad ones.
"Moist".
Ugh, too real!
