Why swear words can be good?

Michael Adams, the author of In Praise of Profanity, says,
"Bad words are unexpectedly useful in fostering human relations because they carry risk....We like to get away with things and sometimes we do so with like-minded people."

He also argues too that profanity has many useful social functions including "bring[ing] us together." There's an intimacy to cursing, precisely because you know that you're not supposed to do it. My son understands that by swearing in front of him, his mom is reaffirming her trust in him; this is something that can be shared between the two of them, but isn't to be repeated in school (please god).34650049093_b6d8f13469_z.jpg

បិតា ជេរប្រទេច លោក​ ម៉ៃឃើល អាដាំ សរសេររៀបរាប់ដាក់ក្នុងសៀវភៅគម្ពីរលើកតំកើងពីពាក្យអសុរស របស់លោកថា ពាក្យអាក្រក់ៗទាំងនោះ យើងហាក់មើលមិនដឹងថាមានប្រយោជន៍ ក្នុងការរិតចំណងទំនាក់ទំនងរវាងមនុស្សផងគ្នានោះទេ ដោយសារតែពាក្យអសុរសទាំងនោះតែងមាន ន័យប្រថុយបង្កប់ជាមួយ ហើយយើងច្រើនតែចូលចិត្តបញ្ចេញយោបល់ខ្ទាស់សង្ស័យ ហើយជួនកាលក៏មកជេរដូចអ្នកជេរហ្នឹងដែរ។

ចំណុចសំខាន់មួយត្រង់នេះគឺ លោកចង់បញ្ជាក់ថា ម៉ែឪ ជេរគ្នាអោយកូនលឺ កូនអាចនឹងជេរគ្រូ និងគេឯង ដល់សាលានិងទីសាធារណទៀត!
