In US: The word "cunt" is more offensive than "bitch". In UK: The word "bitch" is more offensive than "cunt"? Is that right? Also, international cursing general thread.

apart from cockneys, who live in their own world from the rest of us, the word cunt is seen as the most offensive word in the English language in the UK

>>8010160 >I heard that the word 'faggot' is considered offensive in Britain, and it's almost exclusively used for referring to cigarettes Fag means a cigerrette. But can also be used in the context of a derogatory word for a homosexual. Faggot is never used to mean cigarette. There is however a type of food called faggot too.

>>8010237 The censorship is a choice of Comedy Central, they could leave all the "shits" and "fucks" in if they wanted to (and I believe they do when they show the reruns after midnight).

In Lusophone America, "indio" is a normal word for natives but is consider offensive in Hispanic countries. Funny enough, "negro" is a normal word for black people in Hispanic countries but is consider offensive in Brazil.

>>8010354 Well, nowadays it seems that the "PC" term is shifting to "black". You can never guess what the hell they want themselves called from one moment to the next. I guess "African-American" seems too disingenuous coming from a white person now.

calling a woman "cunt" in the United States is "fighting words" on par with calling a black person "nigger". I mean it depends on the context but if you are saying at a person in heated argument it will definitely raise the pulse rate of everybody listening and escalate the situation fast.

>>8010584 In the part of the UK I am from the 't' is actually rather silent in "cunt". I think people just like saying it because it's so offensive, so most people know it's just banter since seriously calling someone a cunt (especially a woman) would be shocking.

>>8010558 Are you too debating who the top loser is? Our freedom of speech laws are stricter then in America, but in reality everyone says whatever he wants because it's near impossible to get someone convicted for stating his opinion. We even have a blasphemy laws (that have never been applied, ever). But you can do pretty much anything on our tv. Selling sex, illegal drugs, shooting and swearing.

>>8010610 You ever watched a Quebec TV station? The tits come out at 9 PM, they go back in for the news and then they come back out at 11:30. There were at least 10 stations a person could find porn on when I was a kid. I don't know how it is now, but if it's less it's probably due to the internet eating up the porn market then anything else. I mean it's 11:50 right now I could go turn on my TV and see how much porn I can find on basic cable. We could call it the Great Canadian Tittyquest or something.

The equivalent of "nigger" is hardly any more offensive than "negro". I guess it has something to do with lack of white guilt since blacks were never mistreated or marginalized (any more than any other minority) here. "Gypsie" and even more so "Albanian" are by far more offensive, even if normally used for self-identification. "Pakistani" is gaining ground as a pejorative but will be nowhere near the previous two for the near future.
