Is it now OK to say see you next Tuesday?

Many people were shocked by Jane Fonda's use of the c-word on The Today Show (video).

Not me.

I'm all for making 'see you next Tuesday' a socially acceptable slang word.

After all, saying "f*** you" or "eat s*** and die" doesn't have the same gravitas it used to.

The more taboo the curse word, the more effective it is conveying our emotional, sexual and aggresive animal instincts.

For example, saying, "Oprah is a big fat c***," is far more effective than saying, "Oprah is a big fat jerk."

Cursing is a universal form of neuro-psycho-social communication that enables humans to express strong emotions verbally.

Everyone curses for f***'s sake!

I think Jane Fonda is awesome for letting everyone know that she's not afraid to say c***.

Even if she does live in Georgia, where apparently they've never heard of the FCC.

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words like c*** will never hurt you.
