Here is a snippet from the article.

“Social swearing” is conversational and tends to define relationships between people and groups. The study points directly to all-male or male-dominated cultures — think about a football locker room or the factory floor — in which the “competitive nature of men’s speech” creates a sense of harmony and oneness. Such organizations, the study said, are marked by a “lively boisterous communication style with friendly insults and witty use of coarse, casual profanity.”

Fuck yeah!
