Because he takes his morals from Victorian England. It is that period of time where we get our current list of unaccepable words or phrases. For example the word cunt crops up in Chaucer and even as late as the 1700's it was used in surnames.
Victorian England is no place to be taking morals from, including the use of bad language.
Edit to add: It just feels fucking terrible not swearing in this post, like almost cuntingly criminal.
Much fucking better.
