But I get it, I lked it and think it can be very useful. I always swear-- started as young as some of those girls. What I like to think is during the video they were prepped and counseled about what it was they were doing, and that the free for all use of the word "fuck" doesn't continue until they have a vocabulary.

That's what I always told my kids, swearing is a lazy use of language-- get a excellent vocabulary and you can use it to enhance or punctuate your statements, not be the sum total of them.
