Let me share a funny story. The first time I came across the word *mazdoor* (mercenary/hired hand), I looked it up in a translator to see what it meant. When the translator provided the definition, I was completely shocked! I quickly looked up from my phone, terrified that my parents might be nearby and see the definition—which would have gotten me into serious trouble—and I deleted it immediately.
In our family, even the slightest offensive word was punished by having one’s tongue burned with chili. We never used offensive language; we were raised to be extremely, exceptionally polite. But there was one problem: whenever we went out and heard foul language, we would burst out laughing.
For instance, once someone said something insulting to me, and I just laughed. He looked at me, bewildered, and asked, "What are you laughing at?" I laughed again and walked away. He didn't understand me; he stood there in astonishment, his mind filled with questions. Meanwhile, I found myself wondering what my father would have done to him had he been there.
These contradictions are very problematic. Children shouldn't be raised to be *too* polite; otherwise, they won't know how to behave in society. I remember secretly listening to rap songs that contained offensive lyrics—I would laugh so hard my stomach hurt. I found it amusing and funny.
It is truly wrong that words which others say with ease result in punishment for us; I don’t like it.😊😄

My opinion since this is a public post....a funny story! Here is a thought.

There are many words in language that can be used to insult, suggest, refute etc. Anyone can swear and use such words. It isn't the peak of intelligence but the low hanging fruit. What is more impressive is being able to get your point across without swearing. Such a person is clever and reaches high on the tree for the best fruit. I am always suspicious of what common culture thinks is acceptable when in previous generations it wasn't acceptable. It isn't progress but a digress into simplistic minds who no longer think for themselves.
