Throughout history insults have been present in every human civilisation that has left it’s mark. In fact you can tell a lot about a society and its values by its insults, for example, elizabethan english, with its particular brand of florid, furious, crazy and poetic insults that are frankly sometimes so offensive that they should probably stay out of fashion, where they belong!
In contrast, our modern day english, with its quick rather than skilful use of swear words often lacks imagination, when compared to elizabethan english we tend use words that are crude and often sexual, which don’t have the same poetic zing as they did in the good old days.
