Relax, I'm not advocating for changing the forum rules or intending to maliciously violate them. We were talking about the role of profanity in the Russian language, and our discussion is now approaching the root of this problem.


That's where the problem lies!)) Prejudices ingrained in childhood are impossible to prove to someone. We believe it's right, without even thinking about why. In childhood, our mothers constantly repeat to us, "you can't swear," we teach our children the same, and they teach theirs, and so on... In short, it's a never-ending cycle (I hope I put the asterisks correctly this time))). From a common-sense perspective, it's all absurd. It will take many generations for this nonsense to fade from people's minds. And until then, we'll have to use asterisks.
