I think the original thread was started becasue the guy said "shut the fuck up" to her well pre-meeting, and then she met him and he was equally innapropriate then. For me, I was raised in NYC, and my mother and father both swear like sailors. Words are just stated emotions for them, so fuck meant they were getting frusterated, shit meant something went wrong, dammit meant something either fell or didnt stay where it was supposed to be... it was all pretty predictable and held no more value than them expressing felings verbally in th eshortest amount of words possible. Now, in context, that scenario would get different reactions from me as well. The way it is stated, if it were in public, the man in question is looking at a lot of cell-phone dialed 911 calls for domestic violence. A hair pull would far more concern me than the words used in a public setting. In private, if she lets him speak to her that way and it is acceptable in their relationship, that all is well and she realizes she has spoken on too long about herself and bored him. If she is sub and he is dom, then that might not be odd at all. Language is what you make of it. I can swear from today till tomorrow and Fox couldnt care less. However, were I ever to call him stupid and that would be it for us. I worry less about what is said and more about the motives and assumed impact of the words. Would the above scanrio from the OP have been more acceptable if he hadnt said "fuck" and had perhaps said "Shut up bitch?", or "Shut your stupid mouth?" DV
