What is the most offensive swear word?

[ringmastery]

the "c" word?
the "n" word?

[kalian]

1. shrub....does that count?

[Rowdyboy]

2. I think both are equally disgusting

beneath contempt

One is pathetically racist, the other sexist and demeaning

[ringmastery]

4. except

when an african american uses the n word it's considered OK.

I never got that.

[camero]

6. I thought about that one too

But when they say it to each other it ends in a. Which I guess signifies a friendly term. I'm just guessing.

[Rowdyboy]

8. Gays call each other queers

I don't like that; I don't indulge in that behavior. But, if a subculture chooses to use crude terminology I will not deny them that right or call them bigots for using it...I really wish they wouldn't (BTW I'm gay)

[dolo amber]

22. Or when

a British person says "c*nt". It's used as a synonym for "you stupid asshole", and often in a friendly way. I'll never understand why that word illicts such vehement objection but people can call someone a "dick" all day and night and no one bats an eyelash...:eyes:

edit: Or when I don't read further down before posting and basically reiterate a thought 2 posts down verbatim. :D

[Djinn]

24. nice to have someone agree

Hi dolo amber :hi:

[camero]

5. I agree

They both are.

[Djinn]

20. never actually considered the c word as sexist

atleast it shouldn't be anymore sexist than calling someone a cock/prick/dick etc. Or is it that female bits are supopsed to be more "rude"? I have to admit I occasionally use it - I used to hate it but then "fuck" kinda lost it's currency as a harsh swear word (atleast here where a judge even admitted that in some usages it's really not that offensive) and sometimes you just really need a good harsh swear word.

Who is it or by what process is a word first categorised as a swear word?

[HEyHEY]

3. C-word

[Exultant Democracy]

7. Canada, yes that is a nasty word.

Almost as bad as the F-word.....France :-)

[HEyHEY]

9. Ah yes the freeper swears

[pink_poodle]

11. Hmmmm, so A for America equals...........

arseholes?????????

[Exultant Democracy]

13. I for Imperialist

[TennesseeWalker]

10. I don't like to hear "G-D"

I really hate it when unclefucking shitfaced cockmasters take the Lord's name in vain.

[Spider Jerusalem]

25. Thought his name was "Jehovah"...

technically, "god" is a generic term for a powerful supernatural being (eg Zeus, Shiva, etc.) So unless Jehovah has legally changed his name to "God", it's NOT "taking the lord's name in vain" (and the commandment refers to the swearing of oaths, not to cursing, anyway).

[blackcat77]

12. "faggot"

Okay, technically it's not a swear word, but it SHOULD be, and it bugs me more than anything else.

(BTW, I'm not gay.)

[PVnRT]

14. Testicle-shitting recticle warts

are the only type of dumbfuck motherfuckers who use those fucking words.

[bubblesby2002]

15. the 'c' word

it's the harshest sounding word. but the 'n' word is pretty horrible too

[DemoTex]

16. "FRANCE" or "FRENCH"

Boy, that is B-A-D. Sometimes I wear my Vrai Basque beret to the coffee shop at Highland Park Village. I hear the sniggles behind my back, and I hear the cat-calls and the "you-son-of-a-motherfucking-whore-I'll-whip-your-scrawny-ass" calls. Sometimes they call me a "slimey, puss-sucking yankee," or - worse - an "intruder" into the local culture of "Native Texans," nevermind the fact that my great-great uncle was the second president of the Republic of Texas (Mirabeau Bonaparte Lamar) and nevermind his queer French name. But they never use the "F" words (France/French). Bless their hearts.

[Khephra]

17. "censorship"

IMO.

[Blue-Jay]

18. Probably the C-Bomb, in America.

[Mobius]

19. A combo curse actually

c*ck s*cker

[Lostmessage]

21. The

"c", "p". "n" words.

[Djinn]

26. you've got me

what's the "p" word?

[NightTrain]

23. If the "N" word is "neocon," then it gets my vote!

Is there anything more offensive in this world than a fucking neocon?! :grr:
