This essay didn't really get to what I was hoping it would. As someone who swears a lot, I catch myself all the time and apologize. Why? What is the social contract making me do that? That's what wasn't explored. I get that it's a personal essay and not meant to be a deep analysis, though.

Either way, I'd still like to have read anything about what people have to say about how they swear, when they swear, and how frequently they swear. More importantly perhaps would be their responses to "why" they swear. These anecdotes are more valuable to me personally.
