Hi, Elizabeth. I enjoyed your story about cursing. As a Vietnam veteran all curses using the F word derivatives exit my mouth when I'm angry. But I withhold these profanities when in the presence of women and children. Yeah, I know. It's old school to treat modern women as the fairer sex, but then I'm an old man. I liked your inquiry about whether "Trump" is a curse word. From how his previous administration divided the country, and the language they used to describe political opponents, immigrants, the less fortunate, and Vietnam war heroes, it is possible for the T word to become an expletive—just saying. A good piece of writing, though. Regards
