I am not sure if this has been posted before but,

Never curse.

I curse a lot. Is it really that bad?

Cursing, usually throws people off it raises flags in their heads so it is something that you should try to stay away from even if its at least in the beginning you will see that your game is a lot smoother and more attractive. In what contexts do you usually curse?

I'm a big foul mouth too. I think you are right that it can hurt game. But it's all preference, a well placed foul word can be attractive to some girls.

Agreed

Remember Mystery's shitty VH1 show from all those years ago? Can't believe I'm referencing this bullshit, but in one episode one of the guys was totally blown out from a set because he was cursing.

Yes, being polite takes you places. As long as you're not being a little bitch.

An ass kisser?

I usually swear in my house, in work; and in sports. I have like a tendency, I`m rude. This can go a long way if I change it actually.

Where do I begin?

That is honestly a good question, swearing is usually a habit. The approach I took was to realize when I swore and call myself out, and calling myself out is actually a demonstration of higher value.

For example:

Me: *misses shot* I am just shit at basketball.
Me: I shouldn't have said that I promised myself to try to stop swearing.
Hot chicks surrounding me: Wow much dedication, I must sex man.

but honestly doing that is a great start, because it makes you think subconsciously "stop this habit"

Never say never.

The only way to stop cursing is to just doing it. It's not an addiction. I used to curse A LOT in front of people, and swear words would just fly right out of my mouth right before I know it. I decided to stop, and I did it without any method. All I had to do is to commit to not swear when speaking.

I find that a well-placed swearword can occasionally get points with girls.

For example, I've used, "Happy fucking birthday" to garner attention.

Seemed to work alright.

I'll test out not swearing next time I'm out though.

I like to look at it like pea cocking. Used well and sparingly it will grab attention.

Over use it and you'll look like a freak.

I swear only when I'm trying to make an impact on someone with what I'm saying. When you curse when you are talking, it hits an emotional cord that you can't hit without swearing. Marilyn Manson actually is a perfect example of this... He swears alot in his music but rarely when he is speaking. He's swearing in his music when he is trying to deliver the message. Sometimes, swearing can make the message you are sending across stronger than if you were to not swear.

Also, when someone swears when they talk, it makes them appear more trust worthy. (sounds crazy... I know. But its true) This doesn't mean that you should swear like a sailor... But it's not a bad thing to drop an F-bomb every so often. As long as you don't sacrifice sounding intelligent by sounding like you live in a trailer.

If someone doesn't swear AT ALL when they talk, I usually don't trust them. It usually means that they are trying to sensor themselves (which they are if they are actually consciously not swearing) and I don't like when people try to be something that they are not. Its fake... And if you want girls to like you, the best thing to do is to be a REAL motherfucker, motherfuckers

Another thing... Not swearing when you talk makes you come off as gay to others. I've had students I've worked with who really we're "good boys" and people would think that they were gay.
