I Dont Like Cussing

I think cussing is demeaning and repulsive. I don't like it when people cuss and that is not proper manners. What will Emily Post say? Even my parents cuss sometimes and so am just astonished. My friends got annoyed with me by saying "don't be telling us what to say? We don't tell you what to say so don't do it to us! We can cuss all we want!"
I am ever so shocked.

your friends are right. honestly you can make a personal choice to not do it. and make it known you dislike it and would prefer that they do not do it, but other than that thereis nothing you can do. trying to force them to adhere or change who they are isn't ok. what if they tried to do the same to you? you CHOSE them as friends, and acceptede them, which means you accepted them as is. cussing and all. thebest you can do i think is tell them why it bothers you so much sincerely and hope they try to keep it at a minimum in your presence. hope this helps in some way.

@DancingStarGoddess: they didn't have to be ever so harsh to me about it.

@MissNiceGirl: how often is it you're trying to scold them? therein might lie the answer to why they've done so.

@DancingStarGoddess: every time they cuss

@MissNiceGirl: that's why then. They're frustrated and don't want to be scolded constantly like children. If they wished to stop, by now they would have. The only advice I can give is seek a different crowd if what they do or say, so disturbs your level of peace.Cheers
