Support Group to Aid people Who Want to Stop Swearing - 7/2/2005 1:27:16 AM

Status: offline 		i posted a thread under "Ask a Master" inquiring, in part, whether submissives had managaged to stop cursing, and if so, how. A few P/pl wrote back, each saying something like "mental discipline"; "think before you speak" and so forth. The point is, each person who succeeded to control or eliminate cursing did it alone.

i feel a support group would be of enormous help to me, and i would hope it might be attractive to others.

We can form a user-created subroom under "chat" here on CM to allow us to talk to each other in real time. i suppose we'd only keep it open a certain numbers of hours/days and try to figure out how best to meet everyone's schedule.

Just to give you an idea of what degree of cursing i'm dealing with, i sometimes curse when typing in an Yahoo IM with a Dom. It's a bit hard to claim "it just slipped out". The truth is, i get tired or lazy and my REAL vocab shows up.

Thanks to everyone who considers this idea.

Actually, fillepink I do wish you all the best. Bad habits are so hard to break. I cuss too, sometimes more than I should, but certainly not as much as I used to. Someone once told me that people cuss because of ignorance and a limited vocabulary. For some reason that kinda stuck and now when I cuss I do think about that. It has helped me to find more creative ways of expression...although I am still a long way from "cured".

If my Dominant swore all the time id actually tell her thats something I want changed. It won't be a ... May you stop swearing, it will be a... Stop swearing as its something i don't like.

Swearing has its place in the bedroom

LOL, erin. Off topic -- but glad to hear from you on the boards, haven't seen you around as much and wanted to tell you that you are missed and hope you are doing well!!

ON topic -- my three teenagers unfortunately have picked up swearing and I must admit I can tell much of it is habit, although as I remind them, they are able to "control" this habit in school or at the work place, so why not at home? However, since we used to play the game in the car of punching someone in the arm every time we see a VW Bug )or several other cars we have added to the list), I recently told them that I will be doing that as home as well. I actually think it's beginning to have some effect, since I know from experience that it can get really damn annoying to be continually punched in the arm! (As I am the driver and not able to look as much, let's just say that my arm was sometimes sore, lol.)

And as my official disclaimer here: NO I do not PUNCH my children -- this is GOOFING AROUND, not child abuse. This is annoyance and joking, not real pain or anger. Well, ok, when my sons do it to me, I may feel pain, lol. And yes, I have been known to let the occasonal swear word slip from my lips as well, and they will be allowed to offer the same consequence!

Have a happy 4th all!

This reminded me that I have a girlfriend who cut down on her swearing by wearing a rubber band on her wrist and everytime she swore she would give it a sharp snap.
