Profanity
I dont think profanity is really a big deal depending on the situations in which it is used, and how often it is used. People are always going to use profanity because our soceity makes it seem like its no big deal and it carrys on through generations. I do swear but not all the time. If I'm with my friends its a lot more common for me to use profanity because most of my friends do too and it becomes a habit. When we're telling a story or anything, swear words kind of seem to express the emotion you're feeling more. I'm not saying that this is a good thing because even if its ok to swear around my friends, I tend to get used to it and then find myself speaking the same ways around my family. My parents don't get mad or anything when I swear but they just prefer that I don't use it all the time. And to be respectable, I do watch my mouth when I'm at home. But when I start getting into a story and talking really fast, swear words slip out here and there. Usually I catch myself and apoligize even though I don't need to but I just feel bad using profanity in front of my parents when its not necassary. Then theres of course the school scene where I always try and watch my language. I would never swear at a teacher or anyone of higher authority or an elder to me. So when I'm with my friends is the only time I allow myself to freely speak, even though its still not necassary its just a hard habit to quit I guess.
