Trev,

I don't know about women in other parts of the world, but here in the USA, alot of women must hate you and Nick simply because they cannot stand to hear the word cunt/y.

I for one think its a very colorful word.

It's pretty much the same here, but it's soo my favorite word.

Oooh...thank you, voodooman!! This is one of my absolutely favorite subjects!!
(I'll pause now and let you all recover from an adult female saying that. )

Yes, many women - and men, oddly - freak the hell out at the use of the word "cunt" in any sentence whatsoever. I've even had female adult webmasters say they refused to use it. (That one left me agog. There are words that some *won't* use in a text link??? Do you want the fucking site to convert or not??? Geesh...the freesite as a political statement. Bonkers.)

But...I digress. Why the hell is it fine to use *male* genital slang as pejorative terms? It's accepted, among people who swear at least, to use "prick," "dick," "cocksucker," etc.

Now "pussy" is used to mean "coward." (If you were going to get upset about a female genitalia word usage, why isn't it that one? It actually has a translation.)

And now we come to "cunt." Calling someone a "cunt" causes so many to freak out and I, for one, don't get it. Sure, I save it in reserve for big time insults...but that's mostly because I use the rest of them so frequently they've lost their impact.

I get told "my, you're cunty today" quite frequently by...He Who Will Not Be Named. Am I insulted? Fuck no. Why would I decide he was "insulting me" when he isn't? He could have said "bitchy," but his vocabulary is larger. My usual response is "yes, I'm very cunty today." I didn't notice the world falling to ashes when we both used the word.

One of my absolutely favorite pejorative terms based on female genitalis is "twat." As in "you're such a twat!" I like to think of it as an upgraded "twit." If you're a twit and work really hard at it, you graduate to "twat."

To call someone a twat in the UK, means they are being an idiot .. twot is an old term for female genitalia ..
