I depends how the word is used. Swearing is a concept which implies the use of a word not the word itself.

The word 'bastard' simply means a person of unknown parentage. During history inheritance and lineage has been important so to to imply that a person had no lineage would be seen as an insult.

There have been many bastards over the years the most famous I can remember is "William the bastard" otherwise known as William the conquerer of 1066 fame.

The term is also used to describe items such as a bastard sword which is niether a long sword nor short.

QED the word bastard is not a swear word only your interpretation of the way it is used is.
