Millennials and Gen Z folks swear more than baby boomers who only use 10 curse words a day.

I’m surprise by the gender report in this study. Women swear almost as much as men, hurling at least 18 swear words a day compared to 22 for the guys.

This report says 55% of us admit to swearing at home and only 7% say they curse while driving. I really think that number is low. But maybe I’m speaking for myself.

What Causes Us To Swear?

Most admit they typically spew curse words at themselves (54%) while 23% of us curse at friends and 7% spew some dirty words at our significant others.  We will typically curse if we are frustrated or in pain.
