Are you familiar with the lines:
"He kills men by the hundred, and if he was here he would throw fireballs from his eyes and lightning bolts from his ass."?
It's from Braveheart, and if I'm not mistaken, the king wannabe from scotland also said "fuck you" a couple times to his father (and if in actuallity he didn't, he could and would be in character for him to say so).
Point being I agree with you and believe swearing always was part of human speech since... our ancestors learned to speak?!?
