Yes, they are only words. :bang: Where would WI be if the word sheep was considered a "bad" or disrespectful word? Who choose the word fuck to be bad?
However, (you knew that was coming didn't you?) what is acceptable behavior and what is not acceptable is the issue here. Allowing students or your children to utilize "words" that are, by societies definitions, "bad" words because of their sometimes demeaning definitions is not teaching them the ability to deal with hardships, frustrations, and anger in a healthy or constructive way. Most often, these "words" are used during times (other than fillers) to demean someone. Whether kids use "fuck you" or "screw you" really isn't the issue, the issue is what caused the kid to get to the point of being disrespectful to someone in the first place.
By allowing them to do this now, they will think they can continue to do it in other situations that aren't acceptable at all. How many of them do you think will continue to have a job if they tell their boss to "fuck off" or even "screw off"?
Yes, this is a sex site. But how many of us use nicks and hope that we arent' discovered to visit this place or other places like it? Whether we like it or not, society does expect us to behave in a certain way. So... they are only words right?
