    I swear the appropriate amount for a person born to glaswegian parents who also happens to be very fond of words and their potential for creative usage.

    So that would be a fucking shiteload.

    I'm also extremely polite and considerate when I need to be :) so yes Fins.

    I called the sweetest girl a cunt yesterday, jokingly, as I do to all my friends. Problem is, I barely know this one forgot that because I was drunk and she took it at face value. I had to apologise profusely and explain that I meant it in a friendly way :D

    I don't know that you could convince an American girl that the word cunt can be used in a friendly way... They object to that term to some degree over here.

    It's pretty normal in my circle of friends :D I would never use it to describe a girl if I WAS being offensive because of the actual meaning. I might to a guy if I was pissed off. As far as my usage goes, I think blowing the use of just a word out of proportion is silly if the intention was not to offend. I'd never be offended by someone swearing at me if they weren't serious.

    I was brought up to think I should take everyones feelings into account when doing anything. I've decided that's ridiculous, only the very distinguished get a shred of thought from me.

    I have an intense hatred of that word. I just think it's the vilest derogatory term ever...lol. I rather someone tell me to go eff myself or something like that. I remember having a hated exchange w/someone and them calling me a "cunt" omg...I hate that word.

    sorry...I needed to say that :o

    Don't get me wrong, as I said, I would NEVER use it against a woman that I was pissed off at. Any word but that. As an insult to a woman, it's horrible, though I think it's more so for americans. It's not nearly as taboo here. I don't use it as an insult :)

    Also, I used to hate it too. I was corrupted... by female friends of all people :D

    Exactly. once a word is just another word, it loses it's power to offend and that HAS to be a good thing, yes?

    Truth is, I almost find it kind of funny when it's a man saying it to another man. (Maybe funny's not the right word. Kinda silly and almost ENDEARING)!! :eek:
    I certainly wouldn't say it to anyone's face and I don't really like saying it over the internet because, well, I'm a mother and I think all humour would be lost if I said it.
    I suppose it's a bit different for a woman because it's like referring them to 'pussy' maybe. But in a far cruder sense.
    But really, like you said, it's just a word but you should take other people's (not YOU) but people's feelings should be taken in to account.

    Yeah, I'm all for the "a word is just a word and as such shouldn't matter" philosophy until someone calls me a republican and then I'm left with little choice but to kill them.

    Now is when one of you clever people send a one word reply to this post...

    I agree totally. As I said, I would never have said it to this person if I wasn't drunk, not knowing her well. She had no idea I wasn't serious and I had no idea how she would take it. I know none of my friends think anything of it and we just all talk to each other a certain way and, as you say, it's kind of silly. It's a horrible word when used as an insult and a hilarious word, phonetically, when used as just another word. I'm particularly fond of saying it as an impression of Begbie from Trainspotting. I should do THAT more often so people KNOW I'm kidding :D

    Yeah, that can never be JUST a word.

    Call me anything you want but if you call me anything pertaining to conservatism I will stab you in the urethra.
