    Why is it that people swear at times? Does it benefit or make you fell good when you're angry or stressed, or is it said for the heck of it? Now it seems that swearing has become more than just common. I'm even starting to see little kids saying such vulgarity.

    Most of the time, people use swearing as a tool to get out of tight situations.

    I swear but I can't help it.
    I swear when I'm stressed, frustrated or when I want to be funny. (it can be funny sometimes I guess)
    But it's so wrong when I hear kids swearing, it's just awful.

    I swear only in very tight situation or if anyone dont ready to trust on me. I think most of people take swear if other people dont trust on them in any situation .
