Overlooked Orchid

I recently encountered a situation where someone was being judged for using the word “arse”. One stance was that “arse” was just like saying “ass”…the other stance was that saying “arse” was no worse than saying “butt” or “behind” or “rear”…There are probably 20 different words pertaining to that body part. Who is to say what is appropriate, and not? Who is to judge what God would have you call that part of your body? Who’s to say that God really cares about something that I find so menial and silly. To me it’s a case of like the pronounciation of tomato, or potato…there is no “right” way, it is a matter of where you grew up, what language you speak, you accent, things of that nature. Yes, when you use the word “arse” people know that you are talking about your “butt”…but is “butt” any less offensive?? What about “bum”..it’s all a matter of perspective I think…This person, and I even, did not mean any harm in saying “arse”, it is simply a word that we use to refer to our “butt” or “behind” or “rear” or “bum” or “tushi” or whatever it is that you want to call it.
