Profanity is using an explicit word. Profanity can also be called swear words, curse words, foul language, dirty words or cussing. It is a sad day when a bully can turn around and accuse you of swearing when you express the fact that a situation makes you feel pissed off!
Oops sorry forgot we are not supposed to have feelings!
Some people use profanity to show that they have strong feelings, such as anger.
At other times, some people may use profanity to be funny.
Some people get a mental condition where they use profanity constantly. This is called coprolalia, but many people wrongly think this is called Tourette's syndrome. Tourette's syndrome is actually a group of disorders that only includes coprolalia 15% of the time.
Some people call profanity "crude", but some bring up the point that it is not as crude to say "damn !" then "puke !"
People who use profanity do not always mean to make anybody feel bad. Profanity can be rude at times and people can take it the wrong way.
