I don't understand the substitution of Mormon profanity for regular curse words. Everyone knows your actual meaning when those words are used. So, what is your least favorite Mormon curse word? I'll say effing.

Snickerdoodles (it just sounds good, doesn't it?) or fudge or female dog. They're getting old enough that I'm not going to have to be as careful anymore but I really don't want them taking profanity to school. Too bad other parents and guardians aren't all as concerned. :)

There are few times I need to swair due to my phelosophy on swearing but i've often jusy refused to say the end of words and left it at that.

The reson those wose words are bad is they are shocking so I use them in moderation to keep that shock value.

Flip is my favorite. I live out in the Mission Field so I get a lot of funny looks, but it doesn't bother me.

What ever way you spell it Frack, Frak (four letter version)
I hear it a lot and I still say it when the kids are around. My wife never cares about that word only FU...

I know it comes from Battle Star Galactica. The funny thing I saw protesters using it in a rally and on signs. My wife laughed and said well it's only a matter of time and it will be a dirty word.....

She right to much...

My son knows what all the bad words are, and knows he is not supposed to say them. My daughter is still learning what NOT to say. Every now and then my son will tell me, "sister said the F word...you know, the F-R word?" (freak)

One my ex-husband's former roommate used all the time was "freak." I found out on Facebook that this former roommate eventually moved back to Utah after he was done with college to be with his family.

"Fetch"

It's still cursing because anytime they use it, I know they are actually saying "fuck"

I don't mind cursing in the appropriate places, but comeon, if you claim cursing is wrong, don't cheat!

I SOOO agree with you!
If you think swearing is wrong... then just don't do it. Finding substitutes is pointless.. you might as well say the 'real' word.

In Holland, normal people say Shit a lot. And mormons think that's a no-no... so they say ships.... which in Dutch means potato chip....

And i must admit.. that really gets up my nose...

"witch with a capital B". As in "that woman is a witch with a capital B". That's always been my favorite.

This word is new to me, but an LDS 50ish guy I play basketball with says, "Stinkweed!" everytime he misses a shot or makes a turnover.

I love how "fart" was a dirty word growing up, also "butt" We were allowed to say "toot" and "behind" or "buns"

Stupid mormons.
