On Swearing
Ok, listen up you big twit. Ya, you sitting at the computer!
People love to swear and I am one of them. I often say, 'Oh fuck!' More than often when talking to close male buddies I'll use the word 'fucken'. You can also spell it 'fucking'. A few examples: 'Jimbo, you fucking with me?' and 'Fucken A man, I agree.' or 'This fucken computer is fucking me over!'
Here are a couple of theories why people do this:
Dean Esmay:    My view is that it's a holdover from the idea that people of "good breeding" and "the right sort" simply don't say certain words.
Eugene Volokh:    I don't like profanity in conversation, though I have nothing against it in fiction or in humor. The main problem with these words isn't "vulgarity" per se or reference to bodily functions per se. Rather, it's that the reference uses words that are often used to convey an emotion (anger or contempt) that people find unsettling and unpleasant.
