Swearing

The language on Mumsnet is pretty ripe .
I hate the constant assault on my eardrums at the bus stop and on the bus .
It's not just teenagers - it's middle aged women , who I think try to look and behave in a " young "
manner .
They just come across as sad .
Older men really let rip as well .

I’ve just slipped in Morrisons. Landed on my backside and the air was blue!

Times change. Language is constantly evolving. Words which were found unacceptable have always changed over the years.

LOUISA1523 - absolutely.

Tiley - mumsnet posters are adult. I didn’t smack mine when the were children, it wouldn’t enter my head to smack one of them for swearing. Well providing it wasn’t in anger - that’s always been unacceptable here

Times change 🤷‍♀️.... and not just swearing.....I mean we don't slap our kids any more hopefully ( I never slapped mine and my GDs are never slapped) .....I would finding that far more offensive than someone say fuck in my presence
