Just curious as to why people get offended by words or why some words are more offensive than others, even if those words have nothing to do regarding your beliefs (religion, politics, family value etc).

I think you may need to give us some idea of what words you mean DeepBlue Something.
One person's offensive words are often someone else's everyday vocabulary!

Yes welcome and hope to see more of you, but.
Words are for every thing from love to hate.
Without them we would still be in caves and,in the end words crafted to offend usually do.

deep/thinking..deep-thought..i..have attended/
much group-thinking..on..the issue..

see that some words are sacred..to some
and holy..to..others..if you make the holy..wholy unworthy..it strikes to the heart..of those holding the word sacred

the key..is obvious..[a..sacred/word=a s/word]
and thus sacred/words cut..thus doth a sharp tongue..cut

so much depends ..upon..the sacred/cow/word.

In some peoples vocabulary the most common word starts with F and ends in K. I do believe that it is caused by the brain working slower than the mouth. So if you want a measure of low intelligence juts count the F's per 100 in the conversation. On the other hand there are those who use the words "you know" "you know" "you know" over and over. I feel like shouting mid sentence "I DON'T F'N KNOW!"

Our language reflects our view of the world and
so it is always changing. New words are being added
all the time as discoveries are made in medicine,
science and technology. We can probably think of
many examples of this. Words for things no longer
in use are dropped from our everyday language.

In the same ways, new words are used for sociological
changes (changes in the way society functions). For
example, females were expected to behave in ways very
different from men. While "loose morals" were frowned on by
society in general, there was a tendency to "look the
other way" where men were concerned. A man's behaviour
had to be very bad indeed for him to be branded a "rake,"
"libertine," "lecher," or "debaucher."
It was the accepted thing for a man to keep a mistress,
but "gently bred" women were not supposed to be aware of it.
Women whose behaviour was considered too "permissive"
were called "hussies," "trollops," and "sluts."

Nowadays, we don't make such harsh distinctions between the
sexes, and so while some of these words may still be used
at times, the "sting" has been taken out of them.

There are many terms which today are no longer acceptable
to most people - and are considered "outmoded."
Terms such as "n*gger" referring to African negroes.
"B*ong," referring to Australian Aborigines. "D*go" referring
to Italians, "w*g" referring to migrants living in
Australia, and so on.

As we study history we can see how language has changed and
we can compare the language of the extracts from old books
and reports with the way we express ourselves today. And
Further down the track in years to come - we'll possibly be able
to laugh at what we found offensive today.
