People make this designation..and I have bucked the people system my entire life and say whatever word I please. I am not going to have everyone else decide for me what "their" version of a good word or a bad word is...so I use all the words that people say are "bad"...just to be sure that I don't get caught up in this head game and fear saying words.....just simple words. I am a no fear type of gal...and refuse to let other people do my thinking for me! I mean...what the f$ck???

a cuss word is just any word deemed inappropriate by your bond group. These are just frond upon and it is believed that you are less mature or refined if you use them. A "curse word" is a word actually used towards another person, these are words that show anger or make threats or defame a person. All the bible refers to is using the lord's name in vain - by which it means silly ways, or ways that are for ill use - such as god damn you - I have no right to ask the lord to damn you, and I am using it in anger to take vengions out - this would be wrong according to the bible - however, since I am an ordained reverend, I do have the power to banish 1 soul to hell.

i know! the words are just letters put together to sound like something. i don't get how a cuss word is a cuss word. i just follow the rule that you can say "bad" words at the right situation, but not at the wrong one. like u can cuss if ur team at a baseball game is losing, but not at a formal dinner if u spill water on yourself.

Society makes up the cuss word rules. You can use ANY word as a insult or threat and eventually society will deem it a cuss word

Society majority decides if a word is or is not appropriate. Just look at how language has changed in the past 100 years or so. ***** use to be an acceptable term. It is not a curse word but not entirely acceptable either. Gay use to be a term for happy. Now gay is a term used to describe sexual preference. Once the majority of society takes offense to a term it is then deemed ugly or vulgar. And what can be deemed a curse word in one society can be acceptable in another society.
