Anyway, I think I proved my point about it (not swearing) being countercultural simply based upon your reaction to my post. My feelings on not swearing seems to offend you in a way that swearing has offended many people before you.

Somewhat related to this, last night over a few G&Ts one of my buddies informed the rest of us that he finds the word "penis" far more offensive than the words "cock" or "dick". Perhaps someday in the distant future we will have a cartoon like South Park that wants to be offensive and shocking and will use words like "had sex with" and "feces" to shock and offend the hell out of its audience after words like "fuck" and "shit" have completely lost the intensity they once had.
