Has Profanity Lost its Meaning?

Maybe a little bit but not that much. Its not allowed on comicvine, and only certain words are allowed on regular cable shows and even some primetime shows. People say all types of crazy things on the internet though, I wouldnt use that to judge their meaning.

I curse on the internet because I want to. I can avoid cursing on the net. Believe me.

I have never been a big fan of profanities but after a while you get used to it.

I don't swear, on Internet or the real life, but I am used to hearing\ reading people swear. Doesn't really bother me anymore.

The very concept of "cuss words" makes absolutely no sense whatsoever

Pretty much.

yes

I'd prefer it be used to underscore something, but it doesn't offend me. I can understand why some people are, though.

If saying f**k doesn't still feel like F**K!!!!...then you're using it all wrong.

No.

No.

For example, we can`t cuss in this site without being banned eventually.

Cursing on the internet is a decision. Someone can stop cursing when ever they want...they just decide not to.

Using profanity in the right context can cause people to take notice. However, in it's everyday usage on the internet, I feel we have became desensitized to it. I personally choose not to (most of the time), I tend to get my point across without using foul language.

I curse when i want to curse.

What dboyrules2011 said,pretty much!

No it hasn't

No it hasn't lost all meaning but it is not as taboo as it was in the past.

Well when its used in situations repeatedly it does.

No, profanity still has it's meaning.

Its shock value has decreased.

Same here.

"swear words" never had much of a meaning other than to get angst out.
