And by the way Timbo - it's Football - not Soccer.

Soccer is a traditional English slang for the game, from 'Association' to distinguish it from Rugby. People only became sniffy about the use of soccer after the Yanks adopted it to distinguish it from their version of football. I am reclaiming the word.

I'm trying to re-claim the word "c**t" as a term of abuse, from the likes of those Vagina Monologue lesbians, who only want to use it as an anatomical description.

Jane Fonda used the word c**t on the Today show when she was plugging her part in the play The Vagina Monologues. That made for weeks of tabloid entertainment. Yeah, take it back.

I'm also trying to reclaim the words "motherf**ker" and "fisting" from the filth-merchants.

My son, as a small child, asked me once if cocksucker was a bad word. I told him only if the person isn't one.
