you never called anyone a bitch?

wheres your sense of fun ace?

by **Ace** Sun Jan 23, 2011 5:14 pm

Psh, I've said that word a bajillion times. You just seemed angry.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 5:14 pm

That's not good. Cursing dirties the heart.

by **Ace** Sun Jan 23, 2011 5:25 pm

Eh. I usually use it in a joke.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 5:29 pm

Jokes used to be good spirited and clean. Good old times.

by **Ace** Sun Jan 23, 2011 5:33 pm

Sometimes curses make jokes funnier.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 5:38 pm

That's what the society that you grew up in made you think.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 5:56 pm

cant it just be what he thinks?

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 6:14 pm

Society shapes the way you think

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 6:21 pm

but we dont all think the same way as the societies of our lives.

if he disagreed to the perceived society then i wouldn't say it was society that made him think that way, so i wont say that when he agrees either, otherwise he wouldn't be free thinking.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 6:28 pm

Well that would have to be about being rebellious. But cursing is the norm.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 6:37 pm

the fact that something like cursing has become normal tells you that its meaning has become flexible, not only that but it is usable in a wide array of situations.

You cannot hold old values in the face of change...

i recommend you stay out of arguments of social influence with a psychologist/sociologist Razz

"the fact that something like cursing has become normal tells you that its meaning has become flexible"

Wrong. Maybe in the West. In the East, curses are curses, which then supports my earlier statement.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 7:49 pm

i didn't know you were talking about the implications across countries.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 7:50 pm

Well know you do. It's a global phenomena.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 7:52 pm

that also confuses me, are you saying the increase in cursing is a global phenomena?

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 7:54 pm

No it isn't. The society influenceing us, is the global phenomena.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 7:56 pm

ofcourse people are influenced by their societies. its a survival thing.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 7:57 pm

Great. So I won this debate.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 7:59 pm

no, it was wrong of you to say that to ace.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 8:12 pm

Why? I also grew up in Ace's environment.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 8:19 pm

because you are talking down to him

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 8:21 pm

No Im not.

by **Steve** Sun Jan 23, 2011 8:25 pm

2 reasons why you were.

first you instead of we

Ahmed wrote:That's what the society that you grew up in made you think.

and secondly you imply he isn't thinking for himself... which he is.

by **Ahmed** Sun Jan 23, 2011 8:35 pm

Well, I was talking to HIM.

I didn't imply that. Dont twist my words.
