Is swearing a major turnoff to guys?

Is swearing a major turnoff to guys?

 

His Answer: “Yes it is, everyone slips every now and again, but guys don’t expect girls to be rugged and use profanity," dishes Kemp, 16. "Girls who use profanity tend to come off as self-conscious because they don’t care about themselves enough to talk and conduct themselves with dignity.”

 

Decoded: We can’t be prefect ladies ALL the time, but constantly cursing can reflect poorly on your character. Guys wanna show off a girl that’s proud of who she is, not someone who hides behind nasty language.

 

Your Move: Next time you curse think about how it looks to other people. What kind of perception are you giving others? There’s nothing wrong with being one of the guys, but it’s important to remember that your crush may not dig the nasty language. He’s probably looking for a gal that he can introduce to his ‘rents and you wouldn’t wanna use bad language in front of them would ya? It can be hard when profanity has become such a huge part of our culture, but taking a second to think about what message you’re really sending can only help you in the long run.

I personally don't curse, but at least I accept people who do. If we're not good friends, I'll find it abrasive, but it doesn't make you a bad person and women/girls can be as rugged or feminine as they like.

Cursing doesn't mean you're self conscious. Nope, on the contrary. I think it means you don't give a... "crap" what anyone thinks of you. This can be good or bad, but the kid who answered this question needs to get over his idea of what a girl should act like.

im not tryin to be rude but this article is really sexist. Guys can curse but girls hav to act like ladies. This isnt the 1950s anymore.

I don't like how this article equates swearing with masculinity, and masculinity as something girls shouldn't have or perform.

ok so there is this guy in all of my classes except 1 of them. when i first met him he gave me a nick-name, he talks to me every chance he gets, he compliments me, and is really nice to me. do you think he likes me? thanks!

Hey girl,

That sounds like he might like you, or he at least wants to be friends with you! Either way, there's no harm in spending time with him as friends and seeing where things go from there Smile
