A question about swearing for the men of MFP...

Guys, is it a turn off when girls swear? Do it bother you at all or do you not really care?

And ladies, since I know you'll read/answer this anyway :wink:, is it a turn off when guys swear?

    It's not a turn off unless it's every other word. Otherwise it doesn't bother me

    I find it ammusing and have always thought of swear words just as enhancing words to other words.
    So know I don't care.

    I think it depends on the man.
    But as far as most of the men I've run across there is a time and a place.

    If you are all out with friends in a casual environment, not a big deal.
    If you are meeting with his co-workers. Don't. you. dare.

    That's the same as asking "does it turn you on when girls wear pants?" There are many different types of pants and ways and fits to wear them. Some are attractively worn, others...not so much.

    I love it when women say the word "puss-y" but not in reference to their cat.

    I only date amish chicks so yes that would be a turn off

    People who swear constantly grate on my nerves. I might have a lower definition of "constantly" than most people, simply because I attempt to limit my own profanity. Excessive swearing comes across as juvenile. Using moderation allows the words to maintain their intended impact.

    As in nutrition, context and dosage are important here

    Ya it really depends.

    But in general I don't mind and almost kind of like it.

    No, guys swearing does not bother me, however, there is a time and place for it. Never is it sexy when it's used abusively towards someone. In a fun or a playful and/or in a sexy way? Ohhh helllz ya!! I loves the f-word :blushing:

    “Cute guys always have potty mouths. They think it makes them cuter.”
    — The Shape of Things

    I played Adam in the Shape of things, and decided to make the change for myself [he was fat and turns into a hottie by the end of the play]. At the end of the play he tells his "girlfriend" to go #@#^$^&%HYG$###$%$%^&*% herself because she is a @$#%^$%#^##&%$&% and she replies with that phrase.

    Fun fact, I didn't use to say any curse words, but the sexier I get the more often I use some, specially the F word lol

    I dont have a problem with swearing as long as they aren't one of those people that feel the need to swear about everything or when its used abusively.

    and no I don't really like when girls swear, but don't mind if it is occasionally and "not too obsene"

    I was told once by a girl to suck her D*c*, but I didn't find it. So please if you are going to be obsene at least use something "real"

    I don't like a lot of it. But, everybody needs to use the f-word now and then. It all depends on context and not overuse.

    What I like even more is that you said swear.

    I swear every time I hear "cuss" I picture The Trailer Park Boys or something similar.

    Well if a guy swears all the time, it's not attractive. But if he's doing it when he's angry at something in general, or he's passionate about something, or worried, etc., yeah, that's kinda hot...

    I'm weird aren't I xD

    I don't curse when I speak. It's an odd thing. I'll let it fly when I'm writing or if it's during naughty time :wink: , but in every day life I don't curse at all. I say things like "crap monkey" if I'm ticked off. It doesn't bother me when guys curse, as long as it's not the bulk of their vocabulary.
