Use of the "C" word

As someone born and raised in the States it has been interesting the last 5 month's following LFC boards and learning a bit about Liverpool and the U.K.

One thing that strikes me is the use of the word C**T....now i don't have a problem with it but was just curious as to it's everyday use in the U.K.? Here you could tell somebody to F**K off...or any other myriad of names but using the word C**t you best be ready to go to blow's or duck for cover.

I take it, that it is used in the U.K. the way we use F**K here, just was curious.

c**t is a sensitive word, but there are times when someone has driven you beyond despair when you need to cut the bull and get to the punch. At a time like this ' F**k off you c**t ' often gets the job done for me. The receiver wont be happy, but at that stage neither am I

This should be one of those documentaries on BBC3 where Huyton Red goes over to live with AZPatriot for a week! Then AZPatriot comes here and goes the match but obviously runs the gauntlet of the alehouse first.

It depends who you're talking to and it depends how you say it. But it can be the funniest word in the English language, or it can be the most offensive word in the English language. You choose.

Was just curious as some day's on our forums it seems like C**t is used about every 5th word...so I thought it was perhaps just commonly used across the pond.

Actually good point Gow. A few of my mates see it as an affectionate term of endearment. It's like hello to them. It almost sounds like cant. In short it's ya c**t, but when said it's ' Ya caaaaaaaunt ' only works within a window of ten people in that instance

Ha, Huyton would get pretty bored here in Arizona, I can attest to that after living here 20 years now...As far as me going to a match and doing an alehouse run...well that sounds quite fun indeed.

I think American people are much more sensitive than the Irish or British.

Sense of humour is a lot different too.

Americans take things to heart too much.

It is true we can be a weepy bunch at times but please remember this is the original home of P.C. so we have become much more sensitive lot here.

You stupid bunch of cu*ts

 ha ha ha ha ha ha. Remind me to give you a plus

That really hurt man  , but a minute after looking at your avatar i felt better so cheers.

where I'm from and particularly in my group of friends, it's a very commonly used work. The only way of distinguishing which meaning of the use is when which context it's used in.

Like we could have: "oh F**k off you c**t" in an angry tone or

"oh that c**t's useless at such a thing".

It is a sensitive word in some groups of people, but in my social circle it is generally accepted. But like we wouldn't use it when talkin to elders, just our own age group and friends we know.

Whatever about context. Young Irish lads are all cu*ts. remember that and you'll be alright

Reminded

It's possibly a regional thing too  I remember a few years ago I saw someone do something that was totally uncalled for and I turned around and said (rather innocently) that's a cu*ts trick. Well this person who was next to me (she was from Wales) , who I got on with quite well, went ape sh*t and reported me to my manager. But to me it was just an aptly descriptive word.

I meant when I'm not on the phone c**t

this is possibly one of my favourite threads on the forum. nice few cu*ts talking about cu*ts

A lot of the time me and my group of mates call it each other jokingly or when winding each other up. It does appear to be a lot less sensitive word here in the UK than in the US.

Aren't the Asians less likely to tolerate such word?

It my country, the F letter word is the most common just like bi*ch and b***ard but I notice in the UK, words like c**t and w**ker are always around.
