Since when has the c-word become an absolute no-no

[g5jamz]

There could be a woman that my wife or female friends absolutely despise. I'm talking a woman that is just the epitome of nasty and mean and completely deserving of the title. If I, as a male, call her the c-word...I have committed a sin greater than blasphemy. Even though they'd completely agree on the deservedness of the title...I just can't say that.

What's the dealio.

[Zcustom]

always has been that way as far as I know.

[Dpantherman]

I never even heard of the word until like the 10th grade.

Ditto my wife told me if I ever used that word she would contemplate ripping my balls off....

cook?

[g5jamz]

rhymes with punt

[PanthaSan]

bunt?

In England, it is used for both men and wimmen. I always laughed when I would hear the SAS guys use it for each other.

It's a funny word too, sucks people get so upset over it. I like how they created a new word on "Rescue Me" and called it "twunt". You do the math.

[g5jamz]

I used to use the Andrew Dice Clay "diesel dyke b***h" and that would set the wife off (when talking about an evil woman) and that too would piss her off. Her words...she just didn't like the sound of it. I think it was the alliteration.

[Dpantherman]

so who's going to grow a set and say it??

Is Mike Hunt in the parking lot? Is Mike Hunt in the parking lot?

And to the OP, I think it's just another N word. Something that a group has given too much power to and now there's a stigma about it. And now it's an "I dare you to cross this line" type of deal.

This. As far as I know, its always been a bad bad bad word to say around teh wimmenz. I only say it around boys and when I really really don't like someone. If I say it around my girlfriends, I usually offend one of them.

The only ones I don't offend are my gfs that cuss like sailors as well.

and the word is cotton headed ninny muggin boys. say it with me c-u-n-t.
