When Did Word Stupid Become a Bad Word
I can’t even say the word stupid in front of Nephew, because their mother thinks is a bad word. This story is faction.
Do you ever think oh that is so ridiculous. Or you think that movie was stupid. I rather see parents teach their kids stuff like name calling is impolite, or don’t make fun a some one.
The talk shows the same stupid garb ages. Some people drive stupidly down the road.
We can teach kids it would be rude to ask personality questions, and why its rude. but, the word stupid is a bad word.
I was once reading the Bible and I saw the word Stupid in it. I wonder if I went through a Children dictionary would I see the word stupid in it.
we can replays with not smart, silly, insane. and to me it won’t have the same meaning. Who is stupid enough to give out their SSI number. are you stupid enough to give your bank account to some stranger over the phone.
I you feel that word stupid is not rude, bad or dirty then use in a sentence. and if you fee that is bad word would word would you replace it with.

Stupid became a “bad word” when it went from being a very to becoming a noun. When you call someone a name, that is meant to be derogatory, that is hurtful, then it becomes a bad thing. But when you use it as a descriptive term about the actions of something or someone it has a direct and conciseness, especially when delivered with the proper tone of your voce to convey the exact meaning. I liked your article. Keep up the good work.

Anything that offends another can be bad.

Brainless sounds more hurtful than stupid. The word stupid is used so much that it lost its hurtful effect.

It’s the way the word is said or delivered that oftentimes makes it sound hurtful or bad.

This article could have been better. You seem to describe that “stupid” is a bad word… but you didn’t answer the question you asked in the title. Plus, there are typos.
Try spending more time on an article before publishing.
