However, I don't swear. At least, not loud enough for anyone to hear. I have never swore loud enough for anyone to hear me in my life. I swear I whisper or think them sometimes, but never speak them aloud.

If you want to filter those words also filter someone saying "you idiot. you're so stupid." In my opinion, it's only society that has made those words bad.
Well, they SHOULD be considered 'bad'. I don't believe calling someone an 'idiot' is as bad as saying 'you (censored)!'. But hey, it's just society's fault. Hmm...what if society suddenly made the word 'derby' bad? ;-P
