In my humble opinion, this comment comes from an individual who
has lived a pretty sheltered life, full of restrictions and controls. If you
fell like that, you have a right to express your opinions BUT don't think
for one second that your going to get an over abundance of support. Language
that is spoken on occasion does NOT reflect the social standing or the
education of the speaker / writer but rather the frustration of dealing with
individuals that will only respond to certain stimulations, ( swearing at
them is better then "kicking" them in he butt) to get their attention.
Remember, what is rude today, will be the social norm tomorrow!
