Almost Before We Spoke, We Swore – New York Times

Two parts of this article really struck me. First, that men curse more than women (we all know that!) , unless the women are in a sorority! Looking at my very small antidotal evidence, I’ll buy that.

Second, at the bottom of the first page, that hearing a clearly and firmly spoken obscenity causes instant arousal. That might be my problem. I don’t swear enough around women!

    Nor do I swear much around women.

    Thanks for finding this, if for no other reason than I like reading stuff about Professor McWhorter (page 1).
