'Bloody' is regarded as such a low octane swear word that it isn't really a swear word at all. It's the sort of thing that an old granny would use complaining about the price of meat at the butchers, so it's really not one that could cause offense.

My (mildy religious) grandmother came to visit us when we lived in the US and complained that we kept saying 'Jeez', which she took as being short for Jesus. I guess she was right? Who knows? I don't recall anyone else being upset about the use of the word.
