I agree..TBH, goes for men too.Anyone using the F word continuously is unattractive and not very polite or respectful

It's just too bad the F-bombs could not have been rigged to F-up the VC. The war would have been over in a week.When I was in the Air Force in Vietnam we used the F bomb, often combined with the word "Mother" as every part of speach there was. It can be a noun, verb, adjective, adverb, or whatever. One time a few of us decided we were going to clean up our act so we decided to take a one second pause every time we were about to use it. But it got pretty tiring taking three or four one second pauses in every sentence so that didn't last long.
I resemble that remark. I almost never use the "F" word when I'm around anyone other than my Hubby. I use it in the car all the time, f***ing a*****e mostly, when other drivers do stupid things.I have a dear single lady friend who is the most naive, most innocent, sweetest, amiable woman in the whole county.
But when she is driving in traffic................Jekyll and Hyde
Cursing rarely bothers me. I spent many years in an industry where it seemed every third word was F, F-ed or F-ing, especially among recent immigrants (from all over the world) whose command of English was very poor. At first I was shocked down to my shoelaces, but after a while it became borderline amusing, and eventually I stopped noticing it altogether.

I thought that's what frig and fork were for.I have come to the conclusion that the F word is just another word for fornication. It is in popular usage simply for its shock value. It sounds offensive because it is monosyllabic and ends with the hard ck sound.
If we replace it with synonyms such as copulate or fornicate it loses its shock value.
Personally, I prefer they used the word "tup" and "tupping". It has a similar meaning. When confronted by someone who is addicted by the F word why not copy their speech patterns using "tup" as a substitute to demonstrate how silly they sound.
You never know, "tup you" and "tupping moron" might catch on.
Refuse to be offended and apply mockery.
I don't use it often but when I do you should run.The F word is the best word, my favorite. It is a noun, adjective, and so on, you name it, covers all parts of speech.
People went to jail, really, for the right to publicly use this word. I honor and revere them.
So, F you and the horse you rode in on.
Actually, I've never heard it used in OZ. I think it might more likely be used on the Yorkshire Dales where they keep flocks of sheep.I thought that's what frig and fork were for.but I like tup. Sounds more down under.

My understanding of this thread, isn’t about using the f word, it’s about over using the f word. Some people use it in every sentence that comes out of their mouth, which is over kill. Any swear word that’s used excessively sounds trashy.The F word is the best word, my favorite. It is a noun, adjective, and so on, you name it, covers all parts of speech.
