What guy doesn't love a woman who swears like a trucker and isn't afraid to bare her chest in public?
The husband or son of said woman.

I'm gonna start my own fucking Starfleet, with blackjack... and hookers (or possibly, in this case, hookahs).
Heh ... decorum does have it's places.
I believe that Admiral Clancy and Jean-Luc are contemporaries having come up through the ranks together for decades.
This may be why she has no compunction about telling him off in no uncertain terms.
I really doubt she carries herself in such a manner generally speaking.
IDK - I would have LOVED:I don't think it's too much cursing, but I do think it's a deliberate move to show that nu-nuTrek isn't your Daddy's Star Trek or even your Gen-X brother's JJTrek. Whatever, YMMV.
It would be one thing if the swearing was organic (like when Agnes dropped the f-bomb, that was fine), but Clancy's actress is just making some strange-ass diction choices. And from an In-universe standpoint, I just can't buy that a high-ranking admiral is going to be cussing out a civilian like that. All in all, it's just.
But people here really seem to get a kick out of it, so hey, whatever.
Picard: "SHUT THE FUCK UP, WESLEY!"
on TNG in 1987.
Almost all of the cursing seems forced.
IMO, officers On Duty should not be swearing.

I have to disagree here. I fucking love my wife
And yet, swearing like a sailor is a proud naval tradition
Besides that, who's gonna tell her she can't? She's the Commander in Chief of Starfleet.
True. The only times it really matters is during formal situations.
She'd obviously be more selective with her words if Picard were still her subordinate and reporting to her, that's a no-brainer.
And has a band naned "Bongwater."What guy doesn't love a woman who swears like a trucker and isn't afraid to bare her chest in public?

Scotty was also one of her role models (no way he said "Vulcan"):
It seems very self consciously written and shoe horned in, in part to inject grit into it to hook non-fan viewers.and to stoke huge off-show controversy over non-issues. I don't see that it added any real dramatic quality to the show per say. She's like a swearing wind up doll and an amplification of the tired old trope of the nasty admiral.
Perfect title for Clancy's autobiography.
