Profanity is a very important part of the wonderful and rich language that is English.

Sometimes, when you need the right tone, the right adjective, the correct noun, to explain in order to communicate exactly and explicitly what you are thinking or how you feel only s***, c*** and f***ing bollocks will do.

If that were truly the case how come Barack Obama doesn't pepper his speeches with profanity.

It's my belief that the exact opposite of what you are suggesting is true and the constant use of swearing to make a point actually devalues it because the meaning of words like f***ing are too general.

A word is just a word but each has every right to be part of our lexicon for their own specific usage. f***ing is not general when used as an adjective. It's a stronger version of 'very' and 'extremely'. It can also demonstrate righteous anger.

It is also a noun and a verb. It's a bloody fantastic word. You should be proud of it.
