Question

My daughter looked at me the other night and asked me where swearing came from. I couldn't answer her. I told her it was a great question but I didn’t know the answer. Then I started thinking... who decides what word does or doesn't become a swear word? If I were to start screaming the word “Butterfly” in an angry tone would it be considered swearing? What if everyone else start saying it in an angry tone? Would it suddenly become a bad word? I'm betting it would. For some strange reason most people are unable to think for themselves so they tend to follow what others think or do. So I say from now on the word "butterfly" is a really REALLY bad word! :P

BUTTERFLY!!!!!!!
