Expletive Destigmatization 

Share definition Flag
Allowing, encouraging, and not penalizing anyone for using, in a private or public meeting, words considered to be "dirty" or "bad", such "shit" and "fuck".
The posters inviting people to a conference announced that at the conference everyone would be encouraged to use expletives. At the conference, when the conference's participants began using expletives most people were shocked.

However, using them everyone was able to define and comprehend and analyze the problem better, and propose better solutions than if no one had expressed themselves without using expletives.
After the meeting, the participants laughed and began talking among themselves using expletives such as "shit," "bullshit," "fuck," and its many derivatives.

The most common way expletives are destigmatized is by allowing and encouraging people to in private or public meetings use words which are considered "dirty" or "bad", such "shit" and "fuck".

Improvised Expletive Device 

Share definition Flag
In the Bible (apparently) it says somewhere "Thou Shalt Not Swear" Latter day Christians have discovered a small foot note to this verse that adds "... using commonly accepted swear words".

Thus the Improvised Expletive Device (IED) was born, replacing commonly accepted swear words with any other word - thus not swearing!
"Oh (can't say f$*K so insert Improvised Expletive Device) Folly - I've just hit my hand with a hammer"

"Jeepers - that was close!"

"Oh Shucks - I wanted to say that"
