The "C" word in porn and in life...

[dbailey]

What do you call a woman police officer that shaved her beaver last week............ Cuntstubble.

If Typhoo put the 'T' in Britain......who put the 'cunt' in Scunthorpe?

Love the word, whether using it as an insult or to describe a chick's sexy pink bits. Sometimes the written word is more of a turn-on that visual stimuli, and reading some of the stories in magazines - with a segment in bold like "he rammed his eight inches of hot meat into my dripping cunt" - can get one pretty rigid down there.

My ex-girlfriend used the word a lot when we were at it, and I will admit that it was a massive turn-on.

I can understand why some people would have a problem with the word, but as a Brit it's like water off a duck's back.

The same person who put the "clit" in Clitheroe, surely...

Yes! Copy that. My feeling is that it's an absolutely beautiful word, and I virtually always use it in place of the word 'pussy', which to me always sounded like a word for five-year-olds. To me the word 'cunt' is exciting and erotic and most desirable, which is probably why it's so taboo here in the States, where we seem to regularly quash anything good. I find it just incredibly bizarre that this word is so prohibited (even in hardcore porno you rarely hear it uttered). Like George Carlin said: "Words, in and of themselves, are not obscene or harmful. Rather, it's the context in which they are used."
Thankfully, my fiancee is filipina, and still resides in Manila. So of course she is not aware of the social stigma that the word carries here in the States. Naturally, I have her conditioned to use it without exception whenever she refers to her womanhood. (Very exciting for me.)

We know that the word goes back thousands of years. It derives from the Old English "konnen," meaning "to know," and therefore means "that which is known." (If you think of sex as being carnal knowledge, you can understand the relationship of knowing to sex.) Up until about 1400, it was a perfectly legitimate word. Chaucer used it in the Canterbury Tales. It is recorded as having been used in the Middle Ages even in a medical context. It is etymologically related to hundreds of English words that refer to "essential femininity" (kin, kind, etc.) and thousands of foreign such words (cushi, canyon, etc.). When the Oxford English Dictionary (the only dictionary in the world to contain ALL English words) was constructed from 1857 to 1928, 'cunt' was the only word omitted. In 1972, it was finally put in. Entire theses, dissertations and books have been written about this word.

A friend of mine worked for a major food manufacturer that was a global corporation with head office in the USA midwest. Their mail servers were in the USA.

The following UK towns could not be mentioned in emails for fear of blocking by the propriety filter.

Scunthorpe, Lincs
Penistone, Yorks
Cockermouth, Cumbria
Wetwang, Yorks

In addition to this, I have been censored on other forums for using, bitch for female dog, cock for male bird and Blue Tit or any other Tit species.

But here I can use cunt for Russell Brand with impunity.

Indeed. We could add to that flaps, flange and mimsy. My favourite one though - which often raises a laugh from Mrs Sharky - is my putting on a Borat accent and saying "vagine"...

"Quim" used to be somewhat popular in the 70's, but I never hear or see it anymore.
