    I don’t discern between polite and impolite society, it’s demeaning. Therefore I’ll use “Jesus fuck” regardless of situation, with very few exceptions on a per diem basis.

      Have you ever thought about why you include his name though? Merely bc that’s how it’s been done before? Why not just say “fuck”? (I am partial to “oh fuck me” personally) Surely the inclusion of the name signifies something, whether you personally thought it through or not?

      And then more importantly is how it makes others around you feel. If I were to say “damn those gays” every time I was angry… without ever questioning why, then would that similarly be allowable? Even if I had never so much as met a gay person in my life, and none of the people overhearing me was gay, and let’s further stipulate the highly unlikely scenario that I was not even aware of what the term meant. The word “gay” actually does have meaning to people, generally speaking, as too does “Jesus”, it’s not simply an expletive - it has a whole history and backstory that just about everyone in the world is aware of.

          Believe it or not, but I’m down with anything that you do authentically:-P. It’s when people say one thing but then do the opposite that I feel confused. Though since you are honest and forthright about it, you do you and I’m happy that you’ve found what gives you joy.:-D
