A study done by Maastricht University in the Netherlands, along with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Stanford and the University of Cambridge. Foul mouthed-folks have great interpersonal skills!
Researchers came to the conclusion that those who curse a lot tend to be more honest and have a higher sense of integrity than those who watch their P's & Q's. According to psychologists Kristi Janschewitz and Timothy Jay, who authored “The Pragmatics of Swearing,” state that people who curse a lot better understand the nuances of language. “People who use taboo words understand their general expressive content as well as nuanced distinctions that must be drawn to use slurs appropriately,” they wrote.
“The ability to make nuanced distinction indicates the presence of more rather than less linguistic knowledge.” The conclusion of the study was that people who curse a lot are more trustworthy, genuine, and honest.
My response to this? What the F?
