Weird. Every NA meeting I've ever been to used the f word a lot. I was in the Army for 10 years, and now work in a macho atmosphere still, so I'm used to it. I try to watch my language though, because I've been told that it seems coarse and unladylike to curse. So I try not to. I like to be a lady.

It doesn't bother me when others do it though. I don't like it when people have children in the room and there is a lot of rough language, if the children are old enough to catch it. For example, a couple had their 8-year-old in the room last night, and they ended up having to take turns watching him out in the hall because of the language. It is a really late-night meeting, though, so hardly any children come there. One of the reasons I like it there so much. (Just me, please don't kill me for my opinion. I know, I know, I need to work on tolerance and understanding for the parents without daycare, or um...nightcare.)
