The last reason is because people cuss everyday.On a comment that I read by a kid named Hunter he says, “It’s normal now for people to curse on a regular basis. I curse A LOT so I realIy have zero problems with cursing. I believe that it is harmless. You say whatever you say. I believe that The New York Times should be able to write whatever they want to write and people should be able to tolerate the curse words. FREEDOM OF THE PRESS AND SPEECH!”With full respect I agree with Hunter, we do have freedom of the press and speech as the first amendment but we should still respect one another on a daily basis.

In the modern society, millions of people realize that several offensive words with insulting taboo meanings heavily disturb their daily lives and break some special groups of people’s respect to push them to feel like outsiders of the whole society. As a result, more and more people join some underway movements to eliminate the use of these offensive words in people’s everyday speech and writing.

Swearing has the ability to get someone in a whole load of trouble at the dinner table with their mother but could also be their choice of words when they accidently stub their toe on the coffee table in the living room. Natalie Angier discusses this controversial topic of words that shouldn’t be said in her article feature in The New York Times, “Almost Before We Spoke, We Swore”.

She references many credible studies and sources as she unfolds her argument. She uses a diverse slew of studies, experiments, and famous pieces of literature and

Swearing or cursing is the stage where every child has to learn all over again the difference between right and wrong. The decision might be swayed by peer pressure, home life, or media exposure. Swearing is an unintelligent and quick way to express emotion or to seem cool. Also when and if your child swears, how you can address it without making the child feel worthless and insignificant compared to their siblings or others. It is hard to determine whether the child will make the decision to swear or not, but if they do (like I did), these may be the effects of this unintelligent decision.
For this assignment, I chose to abstain from the use of profanity. I chose to give up profanity because it is something that I know will be difficult for me. I also chose this particular activity to give up because I associate my use of profanity with a very hard time in my life. Since that time, I have worked very diligently to be a better person and to erase the aspects of the person that I used to be. By giving up the use of profanity, I will be able to start erasing another aspect of that person that I did not like very much. One reason why abstaining from the use of profanity will be so difficult for me is because of how long I have been using profanity. I started using profanity at a fairly young age, probably 5th or 6th grade, and since then I use profanity every day, multiple times a day. I think I started using profanity because in the 6th grade my mother had a stroke and during that time I felt like no one was listening to me. My family was very wrapped up in my mom’s care and I felt like I was being forgotten about. I remember one day in class I used profanity in front of the whole class and my teacher stopped what she was doing and addressed my profanity use in front of everyone. At that moment, I realized that by using profanity I could get attention. In the past, I have tried to abstain from profanity; however, it has never lasted very long. I remember one time I was able to abstain from profanity for about a week. However, once I started using profanity again, I realized that trying to stop was a lost cause.
The beauty of art is that everyone has a different opinion of what they consider art. A highly debated topic is if graffiti can be considered art. Technically speaking, it is usually vandalism but people believe it is also art. Although it is in fact vandalism, graffiti is still art because it is self-expression of the individual and can even convey powerful messages that can reach out and affect the everyday person.
Curses and cursing practices have been existed as universal phenomena since the time of immemorial. However, unlike blessing, Curse words are words we are not supposed to say; as a result curse words themselves became highly influential. The topic itself is perhaps too taboo for academicians.
