Duly noted how the women of the board are more free-thinking than most of the planet, and given the non-PCish nature of MDMers, I don't use this word. You want to hear a pin drop in a bar? Call a woman a cunt. It's not funny yet. And I curse like a fevered, drunken pirate. But even I draw the line. Even words used among friends, somebody overhears it taken out of context and teeth get knocked out. Hell, guns get drawn here in the good 'ol USA for a sideways glance. Then again, we're an ignorant, violent, overly-sensitive, uneducated 'society' based on advertising, music posturing, the size of your car/bank account/tits and a sense of generic self-loathing, classism and one-upsmanship.

That said, there are a hullava lot of us who enjoy the crap out of our brief stay on the planet. And we will make that happen when you show your face.

Oh, and we still have our Constitution minus the 4th Amendment.

DITTO!
Although I think it has a lot to do with the people you're around. If they're friends and know you, it's alright. If it's someone you don't really know, they may think you mean it in a malicious way. If you do mean it in a malicious way, then you deserve what you get! But I have absolutely no problem with it. :P

As George Carlin said before, the C's and K's are aggressive in nature so saying Motherfucker, cocksucker and Cunt are verbal swords and some americans are easily offended by these words. Don't call an american woman a cunt unless you are ready for the backlash.

My experince with the "two sides of the cunt": well, everyone here has said it's bad in the US. I'm on a ferry from Liverpool to Dublin, I run into an Irish family on its way back from a funeral for a small child. The grandfather tells me, over a whiskey and a beer (guess which type osf both): "I was just holding the little cunt, right her" pointing to his chest. Shows a vast difference in usage, if you ask me.

It's used almost as a term of affection sometimes. Of course if you're faced with a red faced, spitting twat shouting 'YOU FUCKING CUNT!' it isn't *that* friendly.

Funny enough, that's the name of my friend's clothing line! http://www.cunexttuesday.com to check it out! Personally I don't find it offensive but love to shock others with it. Nothing like sitting in the Rose Room of the Shangri La trying to act like I care about Miffy & Buffy's shopping adventures in Hong Kong... again... and rattling off the old "c-word" when the tale turns to Miffy being propositioned by her masseuse.

Twat? I cunt hear you?

No, it doesn't offend me - but it takes quite a bit to get under my skin.

It does offend the hell out of most people here, which is probably why the two most vile people I have to deal with through work will forever be referred to as the "corporate cunt" and the "clinical cunt".

Non PC? Damn. I guess it depends on your definition of PC. I think MDMers really pick and choose when to be PC Just don't mess with their sacred goats.

4th Amendment? They butcher the 2nd pretty bad too.

Back on topic?

I was in a car with 3 old Irish ladys on the way to church on a Wednesday morning in a little town near Shannon...don't ask why...and they used the word cunt in reference to a friend of theirs. 3 times. I was laughing my ass off. The one woman's daughter insisted I sleep with my shirt on (cause of my tattoos) in case her mom walked in the room before she had a chance to tell her I was staying the night.
