Personally, I curse a lot, but it's mainly limited to work where it's part of the office culture. At home, my language is a lot cleaner although there is a certain amount of "leakage". It's not that my wife doesn't curse, but she's not as creative about it or frequent as I am. When I'm out with friends, especially an all-male crowd, I'll get diaherra of the mouth pretty fast.
That all said, here in the office our receptionist is one of the nicest people in the world and really just a kind and gentle soul. She's also a very invovled Seventh Day Adventist and doesn't curse at all and doesn't really like it when we curse around her. Some of my colleague don't make any effort at all around her, but she's such a nice person, that I try to control my mouth. My point is that I'll control myself when someone I know and like is offended by it. Or if there are kids involved.
