Swearing Is Good for You: The Amazing Science of Bad Language

It’s interesting to see a scientific take that flips the common view of bad language. I wonder what motivated this angle and how the research evolved.

Different societies have such varied attitudes toward profanity. I’d love to know if the author discusses how these differences impact the science or social acceptance.
