The worst thing to call a man.

Post by oneeyeddick » Tue Jun 29, 2010 12:30 am

Well, it isn't "Cunt", but yet, to most women, this word is worse than racial slurs or calling a fag a faggot and anything else you might think of.

Why this is will probably always remain a mystery to me, but you more than welcome to try to explain why.

Is there anything out there that someone could call me to piss me off more than this pisses off most women, or is it just a matter of conditioning and/or having a really thick skin ?

I like using the term See You Next Tuesday (C U Next Tuesday) because the small woman mind doesn't get it

The worst thing to call a man has to be the mother in law during the superbowl.

used to be the bitch would rile my sister up so much she'd pop a gasket... was my favorite nickname for her. LOL

Cunt doesn't bother me at all. I never understood why people get so riled up about words. pffffttt!

No I didn't.

I dunno, Dick. I'm equally prissy with f*ggot and n*gger, both of which I dare not even spell. I do have trouble with being called a c*nt, because of the historical truth of women being seen as little more than sex toys in some times and some places.

I dunno... I usually get quite the reaction from D!nky D!ck, Microwillie, etc... ... Or just point at his junk and start giggling. OBVIOUSLY giggling. Usually going into peals of laughter. Of course, the virtual retching helps get the point across...

As for the "c" word... I prefer to think of it as the "n" word. Do I like it? Hell no. But I've really floored people when I tell them "You best be careful, get me riled and I'm one vicious c... you want no part of." And used toward me? Whooooo... someone just got a quadruple handfull of aforementioned "no part of".

Yeah, To Own a word is to disarm a word. Works.

personally I detest the C word. I hate fag or faggot being use (unless your talking about a cig) because its degrading to my homosexual male friends. I am used to being called a bitch because well it was a nickname (we all remember the line from the song by the name "I'm a sinner, I'm a saint, I do not feel shame). but I don't seriously call any woman that and none calls me that anymore.

I also find hitting men with single words are more effective of an insult. it should be short and simple and all encompassing. hence, "Dainty"

But a woman being called a c u next tuesday will usually take more offense then when she's called a twat.

I do my best Shambala. Some things are just too much for me. Perhaps you can take comfort from the thought that I am merely human.

In the case of my ex-husband, it was "unoriginal" when talking about his song writing skills. I could tell him he was a lousy lover and he was fine with that, but take him to task over his lyrics? Yikes.
