I will personally listen to anything, and bad language can be very effective writing (eg, Hunter Thompson), but I am sympathetic to the idea that there are different community standards and that there needs to be a public sphere that is more restrictive than private conversations. But due to changing culture and public indifference it is increasingly harder to police this stuff. A majority just shrugs it off.

CSB, if it's OK: During the infamous Janice Jackson Super Bowl incident, I was watching the Super Bowl with a young lawyer who worked for the FCC and had just been transferred to the enforcement division, or whatever they call it. We were watching the game with our wife and girlfriend (respectively) and saw the halftime show. But the wardrobe malfunction was so fleeting that everyone missed it -- we only found out the next day. He had to deal with the followup for his job, and was convinced that the mishap was staged.
