Well yes, sure - me, I seldom use the stronger swearwords since I'd rather save that for when I get really angry or upset or excited. And even the milder ones I tend to leave off if the company doesn't seem right for it, of course. I actually have a lot of affection for the more sillier type of swearword-substiutions - things like "dagnabbit" and "heck" and so on, and their Swedish equivalents. :D But then again, I tend to like silly stuff.

It's just that the Swedish word "skit" while in some contexts is plenty strong still doesn't really shock most people like the English word "shit" seems to do. It might not always be accepted but it wouldn't shock people either in most casual conversation between adults or, say, any type of TV entertainment except a highly serious program or a show for young children. I've heard the Japanese "kuso" is pretty similar in those respects (though what do I know? Absolutely bloody nothing.;))
