Cunt doesn't bother me.
I once spent nearly an hour drunkenly trying to convince someone that they shouldn't be offended by the word. giggle

i went through a phase where i used the word 'cunty' a lot. it got to a point where i was using it to describe everything. "i like that shirt...no, not the blue one, the CUNTY one!" an intervention was held. i'm better now.

Im going through the cunt word phase of my life right now

It used to be fuck and then fuckaroo

Now cunt.
It's so simple, and just rolls off the tip of your tongue

Unlike fuck, which has this big UCK which makes it hard to say all the time.

Cunt has a lovely, unt, so silent yet it gets the point across nicely

cunt is a great word - sounds great if you are talking about cock... cunt sounds nice and sharp like that.

but if you use it in anger that is a whole different ballgame. no no no!

I love to say it.

The best was when we were at some sports thing where there was a raffle and we wrote the name "Mike Hunt" on the paper. It got picked and the girl repeated the name 3 times before she caught on from me laughing hysterically! lol

i don't get offended by words like that because I already know the kind of woman I am. When i hear it, I laugh. if a guy calls me a bitch..i usually consider that a compliment and serve him with a smile. If you know you aren't a cunt, then you WON'T get offended, but if you feel that you are, then you WILL get offended...simple as that

I HATE that word! sad

It has a tone of disrespect to it, the conotation (for me)is one of something lowly dirty, hateful...

It's a horrible word.
In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Cunt is believed to derive from a Germanic root *kunton "female genitalia", which also gave rise to Old Norse kunta (ancestor of Norwegian and Swedish dialectical kunta and Danish dialectical kunte), Old Frisian, Middle Low German and Middle Dutch kunte, and the English doublet quaint. And, by the way, the word wasn't always considered derogatory, even though it is today. Be careful about assuming that a word's modern connotations must have governed its formation. By the way, no connection has been made between the Germanic words and Latin cunnus. The proto-Germanic root of cunt is ku- "hollow place", while the Indo-European root of Latin cunnus is (s)keu- "to cover, to conceal", the etymological meaning of cunnus being "sheath".

First known reference in Eng. is said to be c.1230 Oxford or London street name Gropecuntlane, presumably a haunt of prostitutes. Avoided in public speech since 15c.; considered obscene since 17c. Du. cognate de kont means "a bottom, an arse." Du. also has attractive poetic slang ways of expressing this part, such as liefdesgrot, lit. "cave of love," and vleesroos "rose of flesh." Alternate form cunny is attested from c.1720 but is certainly much earlier and forced a change in the pronunciation of coney (q.v.), but it was good for a pun while coney was still the common word for "rabbit": "A pox upon your Christian cockatrices! They cry, like poulterers' wives, 'No money, no coney.' " [Massinger, 1622]



The etymology of 'cunt' is actually considerably more complex and contentious than is generally supposed. Greek Macedonian terms for 'woman' - 'guda', 'gune', and 'gyne' - have been suggested as the word's sources, as have the Anglo-Saxon 'cynd' and the Latin 'cutis' ('skin'), though these theories are not widely supported. Furthermore, 'cunt' is not strictly a slang term; like other 'four-letter words', it was originally standard English and was deliberately marginalised in favour of polysyllabic (thus 'respectable') alternatives. Thus, 'cunt' was replaced with 'vagina' and 'vulva', 'crap' gave way to 'excrement', and 'piss' was surpassed by 'urine'.

The prefix 'cu' is one of the oldest word-sounds in recorded language. It is an expression quintessentially associated with femininity, and is the basis of 'cow' ('female animal'), 'queen' ('female monarch'), and, of course, 'cunt' ('female genital'). The word's second most significant influence is the Latin term 'cuneus', meaning 'wedge', from which comes 'cunnus' ('vagina'). The final 't' of 'cunt' can be traced back to Scandinavia, as in the Old Dutch 'kunte'.

In its second edition, the Oxford English Dictionary (1989), the foremost authority on English etymology, clarifies the word's commonest contexts as the two-fold "female external genital organs" and "term of vulgar abuse". At the heart of this incongruity is our culture's negative attitude towards femininity. 'Cunt' is a primary example of the multitude of tabooed words and phrases relating to female sexuality, and of the misogyny inherent in sexual discourse.
