Re: Am I being old fashioned?
Its the norm nowadays ,doubt its going to change either. Tbh it doesnt bother me what language people are using as long as its not being directed at me in an offensive manner.I swear and also both my sons swear but only rarely I must add..I cant say I like hearing the "f" word much but its part of vocabulary now from a much younger age it seems

What is the "C" word, can you give me a hint? I don't think I have ever heard a C word.....I don't mind if someone is angry to use the "F" word, but I don't like anyone using The Lord's name in vain.....

Last night having nothing better to do I thought I'd watch the film Ted. I love Teddy bears & had never seen it before. After about half an hour I switched it off. The language & sexual references were too much. If students get to watch films like that no wonder they swear & have 'potty mouths' as my Gran would say.

Re: Am I being old fashioned?
The youth of today use the f and that vile c word like it's part of the normal language. Sign of the times and not for the better imo. I don't think it's old fashioned it's just something that we aren't used to. We didn't need to use filthy language to converse with our friends and family we managed to express ourselves quite well without it. There isnt much respect anymore amongst the young people.
