Words are words and just cause a 70 year old lady decided she was offended by it doesn't mean all of society has to agree with her premise.

Perhaps you can find words that are more "colorful" and "insightful" then the words that tend to "disengage" the mind. Otherwise you just end up looking like someone who can only use potty talk that only serves to bring a conversation away from anything really meaningful to consider. Swear words are just words, yes, but they are words that tend to bring the mind down and into anger where there is little room left to encourage "productive" thinking which is much better for "healing thoughts to take place".
