Reddit reviews Swearing: A Social History of Foul Language, Oaths and Profanity in English (Language Library)

Short answer: yes. Long answer...it is very hard to tell.

I don't know if you are into the most recent season but there is a scene where one of the characters observes a woman on the beach being ticketed for wearing shorts which did not cover some percentage of her leg. Just imagine that 90% of the written record we have to work with comes from a society where public expression was that restrained (and gendered). So even private letters we have huge walls erected between the tone/diction of a letter to a wife or colleague and what their verbal exchanges may have sounded like. Let alone press, books and retrospective accounts.
