Should profanity be allowed?...

Trust me when you use the replacement words like freaking, frickin', Friggin' etc, I get the drift and it has the exact same impact.
And you say twat like it's a bad thing
I was just at the bank, and a father was walking to his van with his 6 or 7 year old, she was mildly crying...and he yelled "Shut your f**king mouth, and get in the f**cking van." Then he got in...sat down, and lit a smoke. (but he cranked the window half an inch, it was raining)
So, if using full out foul language here will curb you from saying stuff like this to your children, I'm all for it.
I fail to see any coolness in sh*t language....and for some of you it takes you twice as long to say what you want to say.

you forgot:Sirk said:That's ok. I voted myself twat too.
What about:
balls
nads
nuts
grapes
cojones
stones
are these ok?
the junk
family jewels
bag
and several others...
they're all good.
I haven't really been part of the debate, but I thought I'd throw my opinion out there.
I'm really against profanity, in real life, and on these boards. I don't see a reason for anything stronger than crap or frickin to be used on this board. I know you say we're all adults, but there are a few teenagers and young adults on this board and I wouldn't feel right exposing them to bad language. One of the users of this board is a 15 year old girl, would you want her to see the language you're using?
I don't really understand the need for this slang, or the need to attack people for having different opinions than you.
