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 it is egregious is because it is used hatefully by bigots. And decent people don't want to be associated with that.

    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.

    Edit: Seems we found the cunt in the white Audi...

    I do appreciate the effort to reclaim cunt though. It’s got a fun mouth feel. Very sharp.

    “Serving cunt” is an example

    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
