Thank you kind stranger . <| sep |> Hey , I actually had a chat to mates about this earlier and the general consensus was that you don ' t call women cunts . Like , everyone in the group had positive feelings about the word in terms of its irreverence and flexibility he ' s a top cunt , I hate that cunt , she got really cunted last night , vodka ' s a cunt of a drink but there ' s a general rule about not applying it to women . And yeah , it ' s hateful in that context not just because it refers to the vagina , but because it has a history of being used to put down and silence uppity women . That ' s why it has a different effect than cock or arsehole or turd because it ' s historically been used like bitch , only far more taboo . It ' s all about context man .
