You've given us a lecture about not giving a crap about what other people think because these are "just words" and now you're saying that you don't want your son learning these words from you because of what other people think? So which is it, do we care about what other people think or not? Either we make a big deal out of them or we don't, it's as simple as that really (from my perspective anyway).
Adult are held to different standards than children for good reasons. For instance, we expect adult to be more thick-skinned and less impressionable than small children. It's not always the case, but it is an expectation.
