    Default Cunt - male or female?

    I don't mean the cunt itself, which is clearly female, but the term used as an insult. In the UK you would never call a woman a "cunt", it just sounds ridiculous, and the term is an insult purely directed at men. But it turns out that Americans only seem to use it when referring to women. Firstly, is this actually true, and secondly, why.

    I just use that term for men mostly. If I wanna call a woman like such...just say biatch, and she'll understand you.

    In America, people use cunt if seeking a stronger derogatory word directed at women than bitch.

    Eh, in my neck of the woods it's not even strictly an insult any more. You might say "I went to the party but there was no cunt there so I just came home" or "there was no cunt around to ask so I'd to figure it out myself."

    And yeah, 'cunt' is never a woman, really.

    Calling a woman a cunt here in the US is the worst insult a woman can give to another woman....or a man to a woman.

    Of course, the worse insult ever given to me was by an Anglophile; a dripping cunt.

    He was completely drunk at the time, and his was the sort of Jekyll/Hyde brand of Alcoholism. InstaAsshole, just add alcohol.

    Actually this could have two meanings, both of which might be used in the UK. Either the party was empty, or there were no women at it. The stress would be different, thereby changing the meaning. In the latter context "cunt" can be used as a collective noun for women, but is not intended as an insult.

    LOL, I didn't think about that, but aye. The first context (that the party was empty) is the one in which it would be used however. You'd get things like "no bastard" and "no fucker" occasionally, too, as in "no bastard knows the way there." I don't know how common this is over in Mercia, mind.

    No cunt, no bastard, no fucker could all easily be used in that context (perhaps "no bastard" might be slightly more unusual).

    That is really shocking to me.

    The worst denizen of the demimonde in my town would not be referred to as being that, and she's an alleged paedophile and really horrible creature.

    Strange. I've heard women being called "cunts" like men plenty of times before.
