Women Didn't Use The F-Word

I didn't personally hear this from a female until 1980. The first time I heard it from a woman publicly, in the media, was in a Jennifer Beals line in the movie Flashdance (1983). It was probably used by porn actresses before that, but I had never heard of a girl watching porn back then.

The practice didn't really go mainstream until female stand-up comedians picked it up in casual use, a few years later.

To me, saying it still feels like a mini-celebration of no longer being required to live the conservative christian lifestyle.

 

I heard it twice in the last month on regular TV. They're inching up until it'll be heard constantly. Happened with everything else, such as violence and sex.

 

From a man or a woman?

Guys said it in R-rated movies and on HBO all through the seventies.

It's just a word. Not sure why it was ever such a big deal, especially in terms of the sexual double standard.

 

Once from a woman--during that show with the woman that was Charlies psychiatrist where they have two teams that play silly games as they get drunk. Pretty funny show. The woman that said it was a regular on a TV show some years back. She said it loud and plain as day. The other was in a movie shown here on an off channel. A man.

 

Ah, the series about the bar in Philadelphia.

 

I knew a couple of girls that said it publicly when I was in high school in the 80s, even while most of us guys didn't say it in mixed company.

I never heard an adult female say it in person, in public, until 1992 or 1993.

 

Depends on the crowd you ran with... I heard it a lot from girls in the biker/hot-rod crowd back in the late 70's until.... When did I stop running with those guys? Fuck if I know.

Before that, early 70's there was a pair of "bad girls" I hung out with in school that said fuck on occasion... It was Catholic school so they were just acting out against the norm... I doubt they ever said it in front of a Nun or anything. The "story" was these two girls hung out with "older guys" after school.... They played the part, but I think it was just a story. They were actually cool once you got to know them but they didn't give a lot of people a chance to do so.



Back in 78-80/something my girlfriend's brother was named was Hoss... He said Fuck so often everybody called him Fuckin' Hoss... Including his parents. So there was a 40 something woman, his mom, saying it regularly.

 

I say it all the time. I was born in 1979 so I guess its been more mainstream my whole life.

 

What part of the country was that in? Just curious.

 

Western PA..

 

Most people that I know, including females say it now. Only now, in my 40s, do I find it amazing that some people feel they have to censor themselves.

 

I'm a new age chickee dee and I say FUCK like a MOTHERFUCKER! That's the way I'm livin' shit there ain't no other motherfucker. XD

 

I also say **** a lot too, but that's never offended me. I mean in Australia everything was a "****" it was the most used word in high school I swear.
But although I do have a filthy mouth at times I'm bright enough to know when and when not to speak it. Like, if I'm with older folks I won't carry on, if I'm with parents, at a social venue etc. I can keep my mouth closed but behind closed doors or at friends or if anyone else is carrying on then I am in my element. Since I learned it all from Australia, I get a few good laughs when I carry on to local people lol. Swearing isn't bad to me, it's just when it's like too much you know? Like someone fuck this, fuck that, fuck fuck fuck fuck can get a bit too much.

 

I don't care for cursing in general, but it strikes me as particularly poor taste when it comes from a woman. Cussing is a show of coarseness, which to me isn't a flattering trait for femininity.

 

I view a women swearing a liberated. I'm not going to hold back just because someone thinks it's of poor taste. That would be conforming to a social standard generalized by males..

Go. Get. Fucked.

=)

 

I think you misunderstood me. I don't care what you do nor do I wish to control you. It just means your personality isn't attractive to me, which seems to be mutual.

 

I like women to have class and NOT be like men. That is what makes feminine women attractive and why I don't like feminists. Yeah, I like traditional women. I guess that makes me a narrow-minded Christian conservative.

 

Well-said, sir. I am glad there's some things we agree on.

 

You have to show up in every one of my threads, like incurable motherfucking cancer.

 

But it shouldn't matter since you have me on ignore (as you stated in another thread).
