I do appreciate the effort to reclaim cunt though. It’s got a fun mouth feel. Very sharp.
“Serving cunt” is an example
Comment on How come in America Cunt is such a egregious word but not the same in Europe?

I agree with the comments, but it’s also about how the word is used in the US. Cunt is really only ever used as a derogatory term for a woman. Usually a woman who isn’t subservient enough, or that doesn’t align with stupid ‘traditional’ values. So the reason is is egregious is because it is used hatefully by bigots. And decent people don’t want to be associated with that.

For a second I thought you were talking about the object and not the word until the third sentence jarred me back to reality… my bad.
I use it on occasion, but usually when I’m really trying to articulate how much someone is an asshole.
Or it’s nice if used during sexy times 🤭
It adds a real strong emphasis when needed haha
That’s funny, I always feel awkward when using cunt in the bedroom. Pussy somehow sounds better in sexy situations? But I hate it otherwise hahaha
I get it! I just love hearing “you have such a pretty cunt” lol 🫣
To me a cunt is just an asshole or disrespectful person.
I work with some cunts. They’re not cunty because their non-traditional. They’re just dumb as fuck and treat people like shit.
American gay folk use the word like Europeans and antipodeans

That might explain it better. In other places, we don’t discriminate, we apply ‘cunt’ to men as well as women. Example: That cunt in the white Audi has been hogging the overtaking lane for 3 miles.

Your example fits how I used the word.
