I mentioned that, yes, there are underage people here, which is why, if swearing were to be allowed, it should be sparsely, only when necessary, and again with profuse warnings.

Otherwise, I'm not saying we need to allow sex scenes, but if swear alternatives are allowed, why not just warrant their actual versions' usage in moderation? It's not a matter of using it because we can; it's a matter of swearing to add realism. You may not swear every single day, a million times; you may not do it every week or month, but there may come that one moment where a single swear could shed light on a character and exactly what a situation has come to.

Legitimately, I'm only suggesting swearing because some would know how to use it right in stories. I'm not trying to tell everyone to swear, or to even think about using it in their series, just to have the option if need be. I'm certain more mature works like Heroes of Evolution could do well with it, and I'd love to have the option for my own works :P This. Just this.
