Why Unnecessary Swearing Is Not Cool. Discuss

There are people who think swearing is the way to show love. Many people swear and call their friends names, thinking it’s amusing and that it brings them together. A lot depends on the equation that they share. What is not cool is humiliating someone with constant swearing and hurling dirty words at them.

Why do we swear?
 
An excerpt from the book The Good News About What's Bad For You... The Bad News About What's Good For You by Jeff Wilser on Science of Us puts a valid point forward to explain why we swear. The book cites research carried out by Dr Richard Stephens, senior lecturer in psychology at Keele University, which concluded that people can keep their hands in ice-cold water for longer if they utter swear words. In short, people swear to let out their frustration and anger.
 
If you keep swearing unnecessarily, it directly affects your thoughts and actions. We might utter some foul words to look ‘cool’ in front of our friends. But what we don’t realise is that there really isn't anything cool or socially progressive about swearing. 

Think about the limited vocabulary you exhibit, everytime you use a swear word to express your feelings. It’s just a waste of words and macro skills. For instance, instead of saying ‘I feel (cuss word here), you can say ‘I feel ecstatic’.
 

What Is A Cuss Word? 
A word which is a term of abuse or a derogatory term.

In today''s world, abusing has become an upcoming trend. Every second person is seen using derogatory terms when something amiss or undesirable or something hilarious takes place. From the society point of view, this is completely unethical. Frankly speaking, such terms are so ludicrous and using them shows your standard to the public.So, it is not at all cool.

Annada Dash KENDRIYA VIDYALAYA -PANVEL

Of course it is not cool

Harini MS NAGARJUNA VIDYANIKETAN

Abusing is never cool. Nothing is cool if it has a chance of hurting anybody. It is acceptable to a certain extent, but when it goes over the limit, it tends to become irritating and ruins relationships. Thus, something that was supposed to improve a person''s image just degrades it.

Aadrit Banerjee Apeejay School Salt Lake

Abusing can never be cool.... however in these days it has developed into a habit and everyone on road is seen using them. Well it shows the standard of the person, it''s quite unethical and moreover it often goes beyond limits and hurts other feelings. Sometimes it even moves on to parents... as an educated person to no limit using abusive language should be done and should be tolerated.

Aditi Sahi D C MODEL SCH PKL-SEC-7

Yes,I agree and this trend has reached such height that if you don''t swear or use cuss some people won''t consider you as friend, won''t add you in friends'' squad..see you as a nerd and only come to you for study related work.

VIDYA GAKHAR GD GOENKA PUBLIC SCHOOL A2 PASCHIM VIHAR

Swearing is not at all COOL. The ones using such kind of a language should understand that every word spoken by them has a deep meaning behind it and using foul language may also deteriorate their standards.. And if somebody wanna become Cool then he/she must increase their vocabulary rather than using such words..!

AISHWARYA H IYER PRESIDENCY SCHOOL (SOUTH)

Swearing is a popular, social-media aquired ''trend'' among the youth. However, one''s conduct and language is a reflection of their upbringing and culture. Verbal abuse leads us to think poorly of one''s family and school. It is a sign of lack of education and could make you sound offensive instead of ''cool''.

Afsha Saiyed PADUA HIGH SCHOOL-MANKHURD

No , swearing is not at all the way to show love.

Parishi Mishra RED ROSES SCHOOL SAKET R0554D

The moment you open your mouth, shows of what level a person you are. Today''s children speak abusive language without any fear because they think we look cool like this. But the person who listens will never find it cool. According to me abusing will never be cool at any cost.

Chaitanya Prashant Talokar NARAYANA VIDYALAYAM NAGPUR

Yes, swearing is not cool, as many people swear and call their friends names, thinking it’s amusing and that it brings them together. But they don''t think that they are hurting somebody by their swear. Continues swearing in their regular talks shows that they don''t belong''s to a good friend circle and make a bad impression on somebody who comes in their contact first time as "FIRST IMPRESSION IS THE LAST IMPRESSION".

Dhruva Khunekari VIDYA VALLEY

It has come from gaming youtubers[]eg. PewDiePie, Niga Higa etc.] who swear in order to display losing and feelings.

Safina Khatri Canossa High School, Mahim

People swear to prove themselves right in front of others even if they are wrong. Unnecessary swearing is ridiculous. It hurts the precious emotions of others. Not only this, using unpleasant language to humiliate someone exasperates that person deeply. Abusing creates a very cheap impression on the people around us. We also lose our importance and lower down our personality by using derogatory terms and develop a disrespectful attitude in others towards ourselves. So, it is not cool at all.

N.BHANU KIRAN Sree Narayana Vidya Bhavan

We should not shout every time we should cool

Aditi Mishra The Khaitan School

Cussing is not at all cool, it actually makes your image bad in front of others. It can be helpful while a pressing anger or frustration but it is not correct. You are not cool if you are making someone else feel low with your words. Once spoken, words can''t be taken back.

If we keep unnecessary swering we may go to mental stress.Unnecessary swering is not good to our health.
