Depends on your social circles I guess.

Name a social circle where you can use language like in the first example, and it's acceptable.

Friends who are OK talking about and don't shame you about sex. Also friends who have a sense of fucking humor.

I know several people in the kink community who would congratulate and be enthusiastically happy for someone who said the first, but would only politely say "congrats" to the second.

Half of my former social circle would have found the second version unacceptable
