'cunt'

Is there a difference in offensiveness between calling a man a 'cunt' and calling a woman a 'cunt'?? I have a feeling that in relation to certain male politicians it may be seen as an almost acceptable term.

Yes probably,
and it depends on the tone of voice and accompanying facial expression when directed at a male.

I understand what you mean but perhaps I should have said 'referring' to a man as a 'cunt' rather than 'calling'. I would not normally use bad language but I referred to someone recently as a self-serving, sanctimonious cunt and it seemed quite appropriate, at least among men.

You lucky cunt
You smart cunt (you)
You happy cunt
These are not insults if a man says them to another man.

You're some cunt can be used either way.
It's just an old English word.
Depends how you choose to use it.

(Here's hoping moderators understand the 2 ways to use the word cunt):confused:

It always struck me as a very interesting word. I believe an old and acceptable English word for a vagina. Now, a friendly word in relation to a friend but unfriendly in relation to any other man unless preceded by a positive adjective. It is always offensive in relation to a woman but can be erotic for both parties as a word for pussy at the height of sexual arousal.

I do not recall an escort ever using the term. However, I have always thought that a few comments like; ‘I love the way that you fill my cunt’ or ‘I want to feel you cum deep in my cunt’ would be far more effective in getting guys over the line than a lot of fake oooohs and aaaahs.
