How would you compare their impact in English speaking society (-ies)? Which is is the strongest? Do gays use it? And older people?
The former is unknown in US, I think?

It is only out of professional interest, you see. I learn so much from books these days. Two days ago I had no idea what vinegar strokes were.

I suppose the best way to test would be to ask people. Ask them which word they find most offensive, then tell them that they mean the same and ask their reaction to that.

Well, it's not like I have so many British people around.

Or any people, for that matter :)

Vernon f**king Kay!!! Did anyone see Family Fortunes at the weekend? Edwina Curry was on with her family, and Kay thought it would be hilarious if he jumped on the floor, span around for 10 seconds, holding his stomach, then got up and said "I'm dying for a Curry!" CUNT!!

Oh yeah, and then there's Roland Rivron. Has this man ever had a proper job? He seems to have spent the last 10 years appearing on those 'The 50 Greatest...' shows. I remember once, he had the nerve to brand Charlie Chaplain unfunny. Now, Chris Morris or Steve Coogan slagging off Chaplain, I could accept, but f**king Rivron?? No way. CUNT!!

Now that's what I wanted from this thread - proper bile. Full marks Mr Cat!

I'm a bit out of touch with the UK these days, plus I'm normally a peaceable sort, but...does this individual qualify?

I believe even Moyles himself would admit to being a tad c**tish at times. Good call!

Quote: Matthew Stott @ January 8 2009, 9:54 AM GMT

Say what now?

My ex-boss Moira, now she was a right Scottish c**t.

Laughing out loud Laughing out loud Why?

I can assure you that gays throw the insult "CUNT" around with gay abandon.

I believe the word "c**t" is used differently in the USA - it's an insult thrown at women a bit like "whore" or something. (DaButt can you clarify?)

In the word UK the word "c**t" is exclusively (and frequently) applied to men. I've never heard anyone in UK say "she's a c**t".

Agreed. Apart from Stott.

Rowland Rivron has fallen from a great hight he used to be one of the funny guys back when Channel 4 was young and cool.

The Groovy fellas with Rowland Rivron, last Resort as Dr Scrote.

Then he did that show where he interviewed people floating in a river
(Rivron river, oh dear God)
and it all went wrong.

Can he be made a partial c**t or some such thing?

I'd be extremely offended by this thread. If I wasn't such a c**t.

Not a Dr Jillian McKetith, the stuff of nightmares.

Image

Channel 4s worst new presenter blatantly offering fisting and oral sex.

Image

Almost killed Dr Who.

Image

Wasn't he US president for the last 8 years? He's a c**t anyway.

Brian C**t, did that kids show about extra-marital affairs 'Play Away.'
What a c**t, teaching kids about playing away at that age.

Interesting! Do explain...

I think he's a c**t. Slimy, tricky, vile person, even by a politician's standards. At least with Bush you knew what you were getting. I know which one of the two I would trust most.

"C**t" is generally considered to be THE worst word there is. Thus, relatively few people use it at all. But I'm sure it crosses all ages, ethnicities, minorities, etc.

Then please do enlighten me.

And the obnoxious Superman, Clark C**t.

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not?

You lay off Brian Cant or I'll have Johnny Ball kick your arse.

Jeffrey Archer is like a rogue conservative central experiment to breed the perfect c**t.

Everything about him is c**t I bet he even farts in a c**tish manner.

Quote: Griff @ January 8 2009, 10:54 AM GMT

No, not sarcastic - I almost never hear people call women "c**ts"?

Well I, and everyone I can think of, would call anyone a c**t. Man, woman, or child. I have never noticed or considered that it mainly or only applies to men.

Quote: Griff @ January 8 2009, 10:54 AM GMT

Correct.

Well, relatively few people use it consistently, commonly, in public. I'm sure most people use it a bit. Or something.

That'll do for the minute.
