I was always taught that "swearing" was a sign of poor vocabulary & intellect. 🤬 HOWEVER, scientific studies have shown that swearing relieves stress 🙂, dulls the sensation of pain 😖, fosters camaraderie 🤗 & is linked to verbal fluency, openness and honesty. 🤓 We partly developed our taboo "swear" language as an emotional release valve 😤 & it has been effective in keeping us from resorting to physical violence 💪. Swearing also influences our social dynamics by enhancing the effectiveness & persuasiveness of an argument & easily conveying emotion. 😤😩🤬😲ðŸ˜ðŸ¤¬ðŸ˜†ðŸ˜œðŸ¤¬ Those who swear often actually lie less 🤥 & have a higher degree of integrity. 😌 As for vocabulary, "fluency is fluency". Psychologists found that an individual’s fluency in English was linked to fluency in swearing. Therefore, swearing may actually be a sign of GREATER intellect 🤯 & a more robust vocabulary. 🥳 Article 👇: https://www.discovermagazine.com/health/worried-about-your-foul-mouth-swearing-could-actually-be-good-for-you #swearingiscaring #robustedvocab #🤬 #love #Alabama (at Dothan, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/CESI-sXgcA8/?igshid=1jqdfk27eaugs
