Where I grew up, it wasn't any worse than dang, flipping, heckin', etc. It was just a word. Never heard it ever it referred to as something you couldn't say except in American media. I got in trouble for saying "blooming", but never for saying "damn". I wonder if it's an evangelical thing. --- Ghosts are cool. <cite>FurryPhilosifer posted [p:962083047] in Is "d...

Is it appropriate for a child to say? no? then it is a cuss word I mean my entire point was that kids would say it without fear when I was growing up. It wasn't seen as inappopriate. I never heard any adult say "don't say that". Plus there's plenty of words that are inappropriate for children I wouldn't consider as swearing. Like fellatio. Or pedophile. --- Ghosts are cool. <cite>FurryPhilosifer posted [p:962083558] in Is "d...
