Do you consider c*nt a bad word?

[pingiluv]

I think it’s funny how people think calling someone c*nt is like the worse possible insult ever.

I added the meaning but erased the word because a lot of people are offended. What do you think?

Yes, it’s a bad word!

Nope, it’s not a bad word

[Jim_F]

That word and other words are seen as socially unacceptable.
In my opinion the real issue is intent. Language is a way we communicate and we use certain words with less than good intentions.
But that particular word can be used during sex with the intent on making the experience more intense. Such as:
“Come on baby! Take my dick! Take it deep into that tight little cunt!

The intent is what makes a word bad.

[Ironlak282]

Neither depends on the context. That word also has a different meaning in North America than Australia. In the states it seems to be used a lot of the time to denigrate women. The same does not apply elsewhere.

[pingiluv]

Yeah I think so too lol

[Wonderer89]

But socially that’s not all it means, over time the meaning of words progress and transform into other things.
So if the intent is to try and offend someone by calling them that, then yeah it’s offensive.
Just like if I call a straight person gay or an average person ugly - I’m intending to offend them.
I highly doubt that people calling someone a cunt in an argument would be meaning to say “you’re a vagina”

[pingiluv]

Yeah I think people over-value the hurtfulness of the word lol to me I’m just like meh lol I think I’ve been called that 2 times but I always laugh because to me it shows immaturity

[EmpatheticLady]

Yeah, it's not the greatest word out there just because of the connotation added to it.

[pingiluv]

It makes me laugh because people think it’s like the worse word to call someone... like when little kids are trying to one-up each other

[PrincessPie]

Well, i for sure as hell don't consider it a good one lol.

[pingiluv]

I agree! Lol

[Sheeva1223]

Nah, a word is bad if you let it be bad to you.

[Pap007]

Well I guess it's just as rude as saying dick to a guy.

[pingiluv]

Exactly lol don’t know why people use it as an atomic bomb to an their insult arson vocab lol

[Pap007]

Yea lol, though I use b! tch instead. I find it more natural. But some people get very mad about it

[pingiluv]

I don’t take offense to people calling me names because I’ve studied psychology and it shows more about the person name calling than it usually means anything about the person they are calling bad names lol

[Pap007]

People take words they way they feel. If somebody gets angry about a stupid word, name calling it means they are weak and can't tolerate much.
Mostly anger management.

- I think it's a free world and I think it's stupid that I can't even say the N word because my skin color's white

[Robsinsf53]

I know it's a bad word.. one day my ex wife and I were in a very heated arg"ument when she called me an asshole! Without thinking, I called her a "cunt" or a FUCKEN cunt". Well here I am, driving down HWY 101 and there's no traffic. I look over at my wife (ex) & she crying like a child...

[TheStaleMarshmellow]

You know what's worse? Flakanook! Yeah I just went there. Worst insult ever invented (just now) words are just letters with no meaning until someone gives it meaning. Like money.

[JCT666]

I never realised that the word 'cunt' was considered so offensive in the outside world. Cause here in Scotland, we casually call each other 'cunts' all the time.

[Longlegs1979]

I been called that and bitch cause I know what I want and to some I’m c*nt and a bitch.

[otternk15]

U sound 15

[USA1960]

The vagina, like the penis, has more than one "name". However, I've met a few women who themselves use the term. It is likely a brash name, but not necessarily vulgar, depending on how and when it's used.

[truthbeknown]

My grandmother yelled this all the time! Only softies find it offensive. Don't like that word, then stop calling guys creeps!

[redbastard]

I don't think it's offensive.
In the Dutch a lot of people swear with the disease cancer thats offensive cause lot of people lost friends or family.

[Coconut_Man]

I think most women are offending by being called that word.

I personally use it when I'm pissed at athletes for screwing up. lol

[legalboxers]

I like my life thank you very much. Calling someone a C. U. Next Tuesday is the best way to shorten your life span

[someguy81]

I don't know why but it just sounds worse than the others when you say, or at least when i say it.

[Himig_Ng_Pag-ibig]

Well yeah it is a bad word. Just like any other curse words like fuck.

[Uncut]

Lol. I say it. I think depending on where you are from. Seems in England it’s a common word. In Canada and is it’s a bad word lol.

[Dinnye001]

Who cares? Words are only that - words. Can't hurt. Offense is always taken. So why take ot at all?

[apple24]

I literally don't care.

[xZoeyx]

Not a bad word but it's rude

[GayHowellMeme]

Why it’s my favorite word?

[CT_CD]

Nope, it’s not a bad word

[MarkyyG123]

I find it offensive, and I'm also from Down Under

[StupidlyCleverMonkey]

Nope I'm Australian.

[MarkyyG123]

I was about to say being Aussie its a common thing to hear but I can't say I like or use it
