I think being frank and honest is a good thing....I do think a line needs to be drawn as to what is considered being honest and straight to the point. When profanity and low blows are used I don't see that as "growing up" , One may very well be expressing their honest feelings when throwing insults at another in a public forum and this can be called being straight forward......But, .I call it "good manners" and "integrity" when a person refrains from verbally attacking a person that irks them.

My comments are not made to any particular person here at Psych Central.... This is a comment in general, and as always IMHO
