Question for the Women of DXP

This topic was created in the The Powder Room forum by twinkletoes on Saturday, October 10, 2020 and has 16 replies.
Do you mind cursing in casual conversation?

i curse hella lot, like every other fucking word is a mother fucking curse word.

excessively for the most part, and i think this may be affecting my relationships with women...........


I don’t like it. Some cursing is fine. But I don’t like someone who curses a lot.
The odd f word is okay but not when it’s used gratuitously... it sounds uneducated to me.
My brother uses Fucken several times in every thing he says. When someone is constantly cursing, it’s very catchy and I find I start using it. Then when I’m talking to others I find it’ll slip out because I’m hearing it all the time. I don’t like cursing in general and after spending time with him I have to be more careful of my vocabulary.


If I meet a guy that was constantly swearing/cursing it’s be a huge turn off.
i hate it when directed towards me coz i rarely curse


eavesdropped on my libra sun/scorp moon uncle talking to


my cap sun/libra moon grandma about him finally leaving next month


he doesn't know how happy i am to hear that


but inside all i can think of is:

i feel like i curse a lot on the inside


but i don't like it when people curse at me when i try not to
something i need to work on it seems.

i will be in the middle of saying something occasionally, and slowly look over at the person right as i'm forming the next words with my mouth, and everything just goes in slow motion as i think to myself "fuck.......... i'm in the middle of cursing again."
The old farmer guys here say f this f that throughout their convos. I just thought it was because they’d had little education 🥴

It may sound stupid but replace the word with another.

I curse a lot, myself, and my husband does too. However, we both know how to read a room and when to be more careful with language. It would annoy me to deal with a man who didn't know that same stuff because it would limit where I can go and what I can do (my first love had this problem...he embarrassed me quite often.)
I agree that it has to be tempered like at work and with my kids. I can get on quite the roll when I'm high or drinking but even then I catch myself trying to stop because it gets old when it's like every other word. Now when I'm pissed off, it's a different story. Everybody backs off. Way off. LOL My bull comes out flying out of that gate strong and bucking and my aries mercury mouth just let's loose like a banshee lololol. My fire is short lived. Like an explosion but then that smoulders out fairly quickly these days. People do not usually piss me off though, I do have a high tolerance believe it or not. When I was younger I threw things when I was in a rage. I don't do that anymore. I destroyed my own shit throwing it at my baby daddy lol and I guess I got it - that wasn't fun cause I had to clean it up myself then.

Depends on the conversation. There is an appropriate and inappropriate amount of swearing depending on the subject for me.


I swear a lot myself depending on the subject

This is extremely familiar. I have Taurus rising, Cancer Mercury, Leo Mars in the 3rd house...what else to blame? lol My temper is no joke.

Glad someone understands lol - it will hopefully get better to control as you get older. Mine did anyway. I have Taurus Sun, Taurus or Aries Rising depending on my time of birth which I'm still hunting down - it's a matter of a half hour actually so it's close. Aries Venus and Mercury. Cap Moon and Pisces Mars. Geez!

I'm not sure how old you are, but I'm already old-ish, and it has gotten better. But better is not "fixed". lol
