A recent case of a verbal spat between a high profile corporate scion and a Bollywood celebrity has had a cascading effect of views and counter-views. The reactions range from calling it all a hoax and frivolous to admiration for the woman who has the gumption to raise her voice against verbal intimidation.
Ever since profanity permeated into the thin skin of modernity - the line between what's objectionable and what's not has blurred. As a society we are becoming more tolerant of profanity and we hardly ever cringe on cuss words. Profanity - our word this week - means vulgar or irreverent action or speech.
