Those of you with censors, why?

[ThePowerOfOne]

I turned the censor off the second I joined :D

I guess I said my first when I was... 7. And it was probably just darn or something. I don't usually cuss in front of my parents or people I don't really know (Well, most of the time...). Just the occasional darn, poop, ass, poop hole, vagina, intercourse er.. oh, wait...

[Kilroy]

I said Fuck when I was in Kindergarten because I didn't know what it meant >_>;

Other than that, cursing started lightly in 6th grade, and got gradually more common until now.

Never cursed in front of my parents (Except the Kindergarten thing), and I probably never will.

[Macawmoses]

too lazy to turn off

[HTA!]

Censors on, for the simple reason that I'm too lazy to turn them off.
I don't curse in front of my parents, or friends for that matter.

The occasional D*mn is all that I use/// meh.

[JrDude]

Some people don't know this, but it CAN be turned off :O

[Custom]

It does it automatically here, never bothered to turn them off. I started swearing in about 6th grade.

lol censors

How stupid. Face reality and realize words are nothing but words.

Damn right ninny.

[Moriarty]

So I used "substitute" curse words like "dang, and darn and shoot"... lol
It's not something I was raised to do, I chose to do this myself.

That argument works against you. First off, words are just words like Mystic says. Second of all, if you go say "dangit" after you stub your toe, and I say "darnit" they are virtually the same thing. They have the same meaning, the same context, and the same connotation. I just said in another thread somewhere that even FCC has realized things have progressed. 20 years ago you would never hear "ninny, darnit, penis, etc." on primetime, network television. Today you do. So why do people, including yourself, still choose to refrain from using certain words and accepting that a majority of society has moved on to other things? It's not like you have higher standards than anyone else, you're not that special.

Because we can.
I can choose to dislike cursing, and there isn't any kind of argument or debate that can change that...

You can dislike it all you want, but that's still not a logical explanation. It's just your lack of justification for your ignorance of societal progress from absurd and overbearing norms that unrightfully dominated the world many years ago.

Or in your case, lack of progress.

There's no point in my arguing further, as those who do censor are not going to change their minds until they grow older and slowly realize things. So go ahead, **** **** ****** away.

And you're right, your opinion can't change by argument. It's hard to build a foundation on a pool of mud.
