Swearing is and always has been regarded as undereducated, obscene, rude and profane in society. It has been censored and forbidden and the institutions of power continue to ban it from society and all media. Yet despite our mums best efforts, cussing is mainstream. Its even more than that, its an integrated part of our culture. We have used profane language since the beginning of time. So is swearing an instinct then? Where did it actually come from and when did it become such a bad thing? Whats the fucking history of swearing? Could we use the power of these words and phrases wisely as a tool in our daily life and appreciate the fact that we have them and their emotional effect on us? Having spent some time on researching these questions, this book is a treasure trove of interesting information on this beautifully offensive topic.
