Is cusing unintelligent?

if used constantly...yes shows you know few words.

Talking "slang" makes you unitelligent... unless you are with family or friends

honestly, yes. Although it shouldnt. It's true if you were to pair up someone with good language than with another that uses slang and curses. But in truth, it doesnt make the cusser any dumber...or smarter

It Depends on how you use it.

it's an unattractive thing to do. It slips from my mouth every once and awhile.

Upon first impression, it often does make people seem less intelligent. However, this is not because it is dishonorable or wrong to curse. Curse words can be used in many, many ways and there is a curse word that fits into almost every sentence. Since it is used to show expression and because of its diversity, people often substitute curse words in. This takes the place of other vocabulary and adjectives that can be used. For example, one could say "this medicine tastes like shit." If 'shit' was taken out of the equation, words such as chalky, bitter, disgusting, unflavor, etc. could be used. Since a large vocabulary is often an indicator, or at least in appearance, of intelligence, the use of swearing gives off the feeling of diminished intelligence. While I do not think that cursing actually reduces intelligence, as I tend to curse, I do think it gives off that impression because of reduced vocabulary usage.

Yes I do, but sometimes they slip and I am not proud of myself :(

Ef yeah it Efin is

I think it means your vocabulary is very limited

That proves his point. That you have to use that one word to express all of those different things.

yes, however, there is no other way to get your point across quite like a good ole' fuck in there.

If you drop the F-bomb every other word, you sound like a moron, but it doesn't make the person less intelligent. I think that cussing is more of an irritation for some people, and others use it as a form of communication. Wierd, yes. Unintelligent, no.

It depends on the situation. And the rest of the sentance.

No but it robs you of your vocabulary
thus makes you seem unintelligent

That's what I meant. I didn't mean it makes the person unintelegent.

i hear kids and i mean really young kids using the f word pretty freely.It sounds terrible and i bet they're not taught anything at home either.But where do they get this stuff? ADULTS.
We need to clean up our vocabulary.You don't know how awful it sounds until you hear a really young kid use it.

I see the humor in this little grammer lesson..I hope everyone else can.
How about a challenge...can anyone else come up with a more versatile word???

good idea.


and thank you, i think it is hilarious.

lol

In most cases, I think cussing doesn't affect how smart one seems at all. Cussing after every other word can sometimes make someone sound unintelligent, but in general, typical cussing makes someone no less or more intelligent than anyone else.

cussing is nothing more than a way to express oneself. the fact that such words are considered offensive is just a societal stereotype.

I have quite a high IQ and I cuss constantly!

i find myself using cuss words more and more...damn SH... :o)

It depends on how it is used... but I really see no need for curse words. You can make your point without using vulgar language. I personally never curse. It doesn't sound pretty... and I don't like fitting in, anyway. I'd rather not go with the crowd... I know tons of people who curse. It doesn't make them look smart, that's for sure.

When the words are used correctly, it's not.

It depends on how the words are used. You can pack more of a punch sometimes with a good f word thrown in.

THANK YOU!!!!!

AMEN

You can appreciate this!

I have this saved on favorites so I can watch it again and again!!! LOVE IT!

I only think it does if they are doing word after word after word. If that's half their sentence, yes then it does sound very, very stupid but if they do it once in awhile for a reason, then no.

If every other word in a sentence is a curse word, then I may agree. Tell your friend Logan to get laid, and lighten-up.

My friend Logan happens to be the smartest, most intellectual person I know. He's also very musical.

no, i have friends who are very intelligent and they swear like theres no tomorrow but it also gets annoying

Though using profanity is not an actual indicator , it is often interpreted as such. Many are of the mind that cursing indicates a lack of vocabulary. It does often disclose a lack of discretion.
