Also, you don't need the comma after "uneducated". There's more I could comment on, but I won't because it's the internet and I too speak very informally.

This.  There is zero correlation between class, education, and swearing.  Suggesting that there is requires you to completely ignore scientific facts.  Earlier in this abortion of a thread I posted a link to an article about the "science of swearing"....it kinda goes against what these dudes are in here saying.

Arguing against reality is a common theme with a couple of people though.

Of course, I wont swear around children.  I know that a lot of parents would rather not have their children hear it, so I try to be respectful of that.  Any adult that has a personal conversation with me has likely heard me swear a bit though....just as I have heard them swear as well.  This goes for any adult I know.  I cannot think of a single person who doesn't occasionally use swear words. 

I also won't swear around my mom....but only because I don't want her to hit me.  On the occasions that something slips out in conversation, she always looks like she wants to kill me.
