Swearing can help relieve pain, study claims

[Pam]

I can't fucking believe this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scientists from Keele University found that letting forth a volley of foul language can have a powerful painkilling effect, especially for people who do not normally use expletives.

To test the theory, student volunteers placed their hands in a bucket of ice cold water while swearing repeatedly.

They then repeated the exercise but, instead of swearing, used a harmless phrase instead.

Researchers found that the students were able to keep their hands submerged in the icy water for longer when repeating the swear word - establishing a link between swearing and an increase in pain tolerance.

They also found that the pain-numbing effect was four times more likely to work in the volunteers who did not normally use bad language.

The team believes the pain-lessening effect occurs because swearing triggers the ''fight or flight'' response.

I fucking knew it. No wonder I've been able to treat my body so fucking harshly and still stay in fucking shit sexy health.

Good fucking post, Pam.

Hahahahahahaha ..... as an experiment, I plan to fucking swear my fucking head off all fucking day long and see where it fucking gets me

Hahaha, women who have given birth can attest to this. I heard some astonishing language from other rooms the times I gave birth myself. I think I let out a few bad words myself, if I'm not mistaken...

That's true TT, it has been a while, I forgot about that

I think I may have slipped a few words out myself. I do remember taking my glasses off and the nurse trying to position a mirror for me to see, I kept telling her to leave me alone, I could not see anything happily.

She then noticed my glasses and started to put them on me so I could see, I recall telling her in not so nice words "to get the fuck away from me, I did not want to see, I have a weak stomach for that kind of thing"

I resent the everyday language of my Anglo-Celtic ancestors being described as "foul." And point out that at the moment of the greatest pleasure a human can experience i.e., cuming, it is extremely common for both sexes to have to revert to their Anglo-Saxon-Celtic roots* to be able to adequately describe their ecstasy.

Example: ever heard a woman, even a fanatically Christian woman, cry "Oooohh, coitus me senseless!!" when she was cuming??
