EZoo, I have to say I cannot agree with your outlook. True ,different people have different viewpoints as to how to act. But, society has a certain standard of politeness that most people try to meet. Swearing and calling people names is not socially acceptable. It shows disrespect for the person they are talking to regardless of whether the person feels superior to them or not.
I do not think I am superior to anyone yet I am uncomforable when I hear todays youth useing the F word and other harsh language while they are talking in loud voices in public. I do not like that language and I do not think it is necessary. In fact, it is a sign of a poor vocabulary if they cannot think of a more appropriate word. Just because someone decides to act a certain way does not mean it is OK and everyone should accept it. What would happen if people suddenly decided it was OK to pee on the sidewalk? Look what happened in Germany when the population decided to ignore Hitler's antisemitism.
