What is the most offensive word in your opinion?
132647
Words are not offensive...the thoughts and intentions of the one USING them is the offensive thing. Words are ways to communicate and are innocent in and of themselves.

Of course it offends me. Anything Ford or Dodge is offensive! Everyone knows that GM builds a more reliable vehicle!

Your language is becoming quite dirty now. Time to tone it down a little perhaps.

Yes homo is used offensively.  Along with f*g, queer, and others.  But i like to use it as a term of endearment with my closest friends. \n\nI am very careful not to let my kids use it and understand the ignorance on which it is based when others use it offensively.  Mostly cause I want their sexuality to open freely and not be brow beat by the culture that one is bad and the other acceptable.

I personally dont get offended by them because they were always my second language.  I do however think they can make a person sound extremely unintelligent when they use them simply for shock value.  I think that as we mature though, it does seem to make you cringe when people curse with every other word out of their mouth.  I can have a pretty dirty mouth when I get angry, or when I smash my thumb with a hammer or something- but in everyday conversation, whats the point?  Is it to sound "cool?"  I remember I used to do it for that reason when I was like 8, but when the thrill wore off- it just seemed like those words really didnt have any real purpose for being in my sentances, but I didnt get offended by them- more like turned off I guess.\n\nIf I meet someone and we are just having a conversation, and profanity takes up most of their conversation, I just think they are ignorant for the most part.  I am used to it though, so sometimes the profanity seems more natural in certain situations.\n\nTaking Gods name in vain though, I think that is absolutely offensive because it is against the religious beliefs of many, whether you understand it or not- it does offend a lot of people.\n\nby the way, tranced- you didnt offend me either,you just gave me a bad impression of you. Your comments are ignorant because the truth is, if everyone believed in Jesus there wouldnt be any arguments, so the world wouldnt be so messed up. Like it or not its true, because if everyone believed in something moral - no matter what it is- we would all agree on that morality.  So, to show you the ignorance in your statement- it is ridiculous to blame Christians for the worlds troubles when the worlds troubles are rooted in things that go AGAINST Christian belief!\n\nSometimes a little reason- goes a long way, no matter what your beliefs are.

Actually the swear words aren't the most offensive at all. \n\nWould you be more offended to be called n****r or c**t or a paedophile?  Or a child-murderer, or a racist, or a homophobe, or amoral.  There are many words worse than swear words that you can be called.

what is the silliest phrased question on Yahoo?
72139
Absolutely! Either that or file a complaint with your company. This is going against the codes of business ethics, and if pushed, can result in a discrimination case.\nIf you are offended by the use of that word, then it would be considered a "hostile work environment." I personally get pretty ticked off when anyone uses that word around me.

Let's make one up.  I vote for plorp because everything else that was similar that I tried was already defined as something nasty on urbandictionary.com

I don't offend.  It's a free country.  People can say whatever they want to say and think whatever they want to think. Something can only be offensive if one doesn't allow for other people's thought and feelings and fervently believes that any view other than their own is wrong and therefore is offensive.
