To me cunt is not really a curse word, just something really classless to say. I'd rather hear some creative cursing!
Yeah, it's just.. really tasteless. I hate it when people use that word.

Maybe you should talk to this mate of us, named StormierZiggy. I'm sure he doesn't understand why people hate that word as well since he used in about each of his posts.
they're tasteless?!?! since when?
I have never used such language.
Do Americans use diseases as curses? I have never heard such a thing, have I been living under a rock?

This is brilliant a whole five pages so far on cursing.It's got me thinking which word is used to curse the most.

It's funny how often ideas about which curses are the "worst" seem all out of proportion to their literal meanings. We don't use disease curses here, but we do have for example (and maybe you do too) the fairly common retort "Go to hell," which most Americans would consider mild enough to be more an insult than 'real' cursing. But if you take it literally, the sentiment behind it is actually pretty horrendous..."Not only do I hope you die right now, I also wish you eternal torment in the afterlife."I'm curious too! I can't imagine an American saying: "You fuckers can all get the typhus!"
I've never used the c-word or m-fer and have never dared to write/type the f-word.

When I was in second grade I got into an 'incident' at recess where I grabbed a rock, walked up to a much older bully who was doing 'Indian rope burn' on one of my friends to make her fall from the tree she was climbing in, and started clobbering him over the head with the rock. He turned around and wailed, "Ow, what are you doing you little brat!" or something like that, and I yelled back "Go fuck yourself!" Of course, when one of the teachers walked over, he then made a show of being all boo-hoo blubbery and tried to act like he hadn't been doing anything wrong. We both wound up in detention for the rest of the day--me because "you used a bad word," and they even called my mother to protest my language. When my father heard about it, he marched over to the principal's office and said, Let me get this straight--you're not worried if one child beats another child over the head with a rock, but you DO care if they use one curse word in a situation where almost any adult would curse too? The principal was pretty taken aback by that lol.

More like "Pffffftt...figures ," because it was just the kind of thing my father would do. I don't think I got into any more trouble at school on account of it, but my father did march me over to the kid's house afterwards to apologize. His parents were total rednecks (which also figures) who just sat there glowering at us in the usual sullen way, with a hint of contemptuous smirk at the absurdity of our behavior (after we left my father said, "Did you see how his parents don't even care? That's why that boy is a bully"). My father couldn't very well have agreed with the principal on the swearing thing anyway, since he swore profusely himself whenever he lost his temper at something, which was a fairly common occurrence, so I'd learned most all the curse words I knew from him.When your dad said that, were you thinking "shut up, dad! I don't need to get into any more trouble!"? I probably would have been...
I guess I just can't picture someone saying "Oh cancer!" when spilling coffee on the way to a job interview like I'd say "Oh fuck!"
have any of you heard kids, and I mean like UNDER TEN YEARS OLD, use heavy swear words? like fuk, etc...
Ive heard under that age use the classless 'C' word!
I suppose, it could be the parents they have, what they are growing up with but honestly, it seems completely wrong to hear!
