Who is smarter, someone who swears or someone who doesn't?
well, all I can say is as someone who doesn't swear, I have to find creative ways to swear without actually swearing
Someone who swears only a little so when they do you know it’s serious
I guess It's never been THAT serious for me then
I only swear irl in very special circumstances. Text is different though
Nope, people who swear tend to have a higher intelligence, they literally know more words, and allow their use
:/
citation needed on that my guy
"literally know more words" lol I know the swear words I just don't use them
I mean most people know the words they just don’t use them. In that case religious people who go to church are smarter since they read and learn about historical events more
ah yes, the ole "studies have shown"
That's a sound argument, the people actually taking the time to read the book would probably be smarter than someone who didn't
I need to know the sample size of the study, how it was conducted, etc
cuz academia totally isnt corrupted
But also, artificially restricting your dialogue also restricts you conversational intelligence
peer reviewed academia is corrupted unfortunately
Maybe it's because I'm an autistic retard, but I never got the concept of swearing. Why is is more acceptable to say you're having sex with someone rather than saying you're fucking them? Or more acceptable to say that you're using the rest room rather than say "I'm taking a shit"?
@Kinky Kitsune (Coomer) I was hoping that was an Epstein meme, and now I'm disappointed
https://youtu.be/U1pg49xB6VM this guy did the study
lol 161 views
Because by the time tedx was accepting actual science, everyone had already just started ignoring them
"too stupid to think of a better word" this guy must be trolling
skimming through the video, no study was actually provided, no sources, nothing
unless you want to give me a timestamp, it's not worth my time to sift through it
Disappointing, he is the one who ran the stuby tho. I linked the vid because I figured himself talking on the subject would include the study. Let me see if I can refind they original papers
from the video description: "Richard Stephens will present the numerous positive outcomes of swearing."
@Gustavus Adolphus is a pedo enabler
*outcomes*
ok that's hilarious
LOL
Quote from bottom of page 6: "These were 29 adults aged 18-25 years (mean age 21.0 years, SD 1.84) including 18 females."
29 adults
very convincing lol
also that is a very narrow age group
One might argue that "artificially restraining word choice" *improves* functional language.
