>Oracle merely called into question the concept that we posters should be excused from socially appropriate behavior simply because of our individual disorders. I side with Oracle on this one. Yes it is more difficult for those of us with mental disorders to control our anger and remain civil, but none-the-less, we should not expect our disorders to provide license for socially inappropriate behavior.
In my circle of friends, cussing is socially appropriate. Those who choose to do it aren't any less adult than anyone else. That something doesn't fall into the psychobabble rules of civility doesn't make it socially inappropriate. And no one was suggesting mental disorders were an excuse for anger and incivility.
