Hmm, ok, that's a bit odd, but ok. Usually if someone's offended by one, they're offended by all, in my experience anyway.

NA

I'm not really offended by violence, but it definitely makes me uncomfortable. I "watched" several scenes from Daredevil with my hands over my eyes. No problems with sex or swearing, though.

[ninety6tears]

I...doubt that, though I'm sure there's lots of overlap. I would say violence is the most reasonable squick, and I kinda get hating profanity but only if it's sensitivity to saying things that are actually hurtful, and then sex can have uncomfortable context for loads of reasons. But equating "holy shitsnacks!" to the wrongness of a bloody horror scene, much less thinking the former is worse, is definitely odd to me.

[ibbity]

I'm not into this character but this is actually true of me in my media consumption as well. Not sure why really. I guess since I grew up in a home where we weren't allowed to swear, I tend to associate it with people who don't know how to control their speech and emotions because it makes people sound angrier to me than if they weren't swearing.

[(Anonymous)]

This sounds similar to my experience as well. Most people sound angry all the time, whether they mean to or not because of their cursing.

[(Anonymous)]

It isn't that it sound angry for me. It is that it sounds unintelligent and lazy. Like, there are so many good and appropriate word choices that are better and make you sound better. Swearing when you, say, stub your toe or something like that, sure. But swearing not as automatic but as part of words you've thought about and are choosing to say? That just sounds lazy and makes me question your intelligence.

[kallanda_lee]

Yes, I was just having this conversation today. I grew up among a lot of rich people's kids, and word use (including swearing) gives away a lot about our education and social class usually.

I mean, I often swear like a sailor, but I know when not to, as well.

nayrt

I think that's the trick, though - swearing can be used to great effect, but you really need to know when and when not to.

[(Anonymous)]

I mean, I thought the above comment was elitist crap, but you're all-out equating intelligence to class. Nice.

[kallanda_lee]

Intelligence does not equate to class. Perception of it, however, does.

[elaminator]

My dad would always scold me for swearing, and it worked...for a while.

The thing is I've always had a bit of a dirty mouth, but I learned to hide it. As I got older I stopped caring so much, but I won't swear...say, ten times in two sentences. I don't get that; Tarantino films confuse me for that reason. I get it Tarantino, you can use other words now.

Though I will add that I don't think swearing is 'worse' than sex or violence, but I don't see sex as a bad thing and I'm mostly fine with fictional violence. You can overdo any of it, but in principle...I'm okay with it.

[anarchicq]

I'm not offended, but I always like to think of Deadpool as more clever with his mouth than just swearing. It bugged me in the video game too.

[kallanda_lee]

Will there be that much, though, I wonder? I mean they can have him swear, but I doubt it will be a string of fuck fuck fuck, that's just bad writing.

[sarillia]

I once asked someone who is a very conservative Christian why she was against media with a lot of swearing but still watched and read things with violence when that's immoral too. For her it was about how the viewer/reader is subjected to the unwanted language which makes it different from violence because you're not actually hurt by fictional violence but you hear swearing just the same as if it had been real life. I thought that was an interesting way of looking at it.

Did this movie come out already...or are we still waiting?

[(Anonymous)]

So I take it you haven't seen Guardians of the Galaxy either?
