Does swearing too much become a turnoff?

Swearing, cursing, innuendo, sentences with sexual double meanings and other kinds of sexual talks ARE turnoffs for me, regardless of the frequency of use.

When meeting those that talk like that, my immediate reaction is to leave the conversation. I do not tolerate that people use those words because it shows that they lack the most elementary education.

I like to converse with educated people and not with simple minded ones that are trying to look interesting by swearing and cursing. Those do not inspire confidence and I would never befriend a person that swear or curses in every sentence.

Depending on the situation, it does to me. My friend, Bob Kellogg, in just casual conversation, says some form of the word, "fuck" almost every other word. I have no problem with anybody using it. It's just a word. Words can only hurt you if YOU give them the power to. But, because it's so repeatitious with him, it DOES get a bit annoying. It's kinda like someone playing the same song over and over again.
Otherwise, I doon't really care about people swearing.
Another situation where I don't like it is people saying it just to say it. My guitarist would yell, "FUCK OFF" right in the middle of one of our songs for absolutely no reason.

Even tho I do it on here sometimes there's really. no need for it

And I'll even throw myself under the bus right now most people cuss because their vocabulary is not big enough to express themselves so they cuss or they're just trying to make a point

some people swear from time to time...

others do swear often

there's the ones that swear a lot

and then, you have the ones that swear TOO MUCH... and when it is "too much" it's definitely for a negative reason, like... being a turn off, lol

Yea, socially we accepted that these words have a bad connotation. Using them just tells me you're disrespectful.

[Sevenpointfive]

yes. i remember a pretty girl told me this. and i stopped swearing. i think i was worse than i remember? my vocabulary was limited i suppose?

[AngryCarl3]

I think any word become devalued through over use. Study, for example. Anyway it's not study, it's work.

[MrChinaski]

Yes. And I'm guilty, but I'm trying to improve. 🤷‍♀️

[Kingofkings1992]

If she can't go a sentence without saying "fuck," then yeah it's kind of trashy. Once in a while is normal. We're all human

It is if she does it so much she can't turn it off.

[Knotty_ducker19]

Not to me
