I honestly never feel that I was lied to about swearing.
When I was a very young kid, 3rd or 4th grade, my
Father told me that there was nothing wrong with
swearing...but that I shouldn't do it in front of my my Mother.
My grade school teacher caught me swearing and she
told me the same thing.
It is a respect thing, a culture thing. You don't
swear in front of your mother for the same reason you
don't take your dick out in public: It's considered impolite.
