   I never understood the stigma of the word "cunt". To me it's no different than any other swear word, but to others, it is offensive as "nigger". The common response is that it's "derogatory towards women", but so is "bitch", and that word isn't considered nearly as offensive.

   Also, men are called cunts too. In fact, cunt.com redirects to a Wikipedia article on a male British politician.

   I will call anyone who truly pisses me off and enters my personal hall of shame a cunt, regardless of gender. Deal with it.

     @xianc78 they say it all the time in england/australia. i think people here just think it sounds visceral. of all the swear words, it is the one that SOUNDS the worst probably. it's got all the hallmarks of how a bad swear word sounds.

     @beardalaxy Before they enacted "hate speech laws" I'd argue that the British were less sensitive than Americans because of this alone.
