It's not the kind of language we use in polite society...but apparently swearing is actually a sign of intelligence.
It's true. Swearing is actually a sign of verbal superiority according to recent studies.
Timothy Jay, a professor of psychology at the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts has been studying swearing for more than four decades.
He says new research indicates swearing is a sign of intelligence and it's also a sign of honesty. The more you cuss, the less you lie.
It also helps with pain tolerance. Who hasn't dropped an F-Bomb when they're hurt?
People who swear a lot tend to be more creative as well. It's a right side of the brain thing.
Lastly, cursing can help prevent physical violence. People who swear to vent their emotions are less likely to get physical.
