Reminds me of the word “spastic” which (though it can be used offensively in the US) is usually thought of in the US as more of someone who is goofy or uncoordinated.
In plenty of other English-speaking places, it’s as bad as the word “retard”, and is often used to demean people with cerebral palsy.

I agree with the comments, but it’s also about how the word is used in the US. Cunt is really only ever used as a derogatory term for a woman. Usually a woman who isn’t subservient enough, or that doesn’t align with stupid ‘traditional’ values. So the reason it is egregious is because it is used hatefully by bigots. And decent people don’t want to be associated with that.
That might explain it better. In other places, we don’t discriminate, we apply ‘cunt’ to men as well as women. Example: That cunt in the white Audi has been hogging the overtaking lane for 3 miles.
Edit: Seems we found the cunt in the white Audi…
Your example fits how I used the word.
I do appreciate the effort to reclaim cunt though. It’s got a fun mouth feel. Very sharp.
“Serving cunt” is an example
For a second I thought you were talking about the object and not the word until the third sentence jarred me back to reality… my bad.
I use it on occasion, but usually when I’m really trying to articulate how much someone is an asshole.
Or it’s nice if used during sexy times 🤭
It adds a real strong emphasis when needed haha
That’s funny, I always feel awkward when using cunt in the bedroom. Pussy somehow sounds better in sexy situations? But I hate it otherwise hahaha
I get it! I just love hearing “you have such a pretty cunt” lol 🫣
Oh well…I mean when you put it that way goodness. That is kinda hot!
Right! It’s all about the context 😊
I work with some cunts. They’re not cunty because their non-traditional. They’re just dumb as fuck and treat people like shit.
To me a cunt is just an asshole or disrespectful person.
American gay folk use the word like Europeans and antipodeans
Because Americans are cunts. That’s why.
America is rather puritanical compared to Europe would be my guess.
Welcome to the origins of the colonies. It’s almost like there is a strong through line somehow even after 300+ years.
You ain’t too far off.
Habe you tried talking to Australians?
Nah, yeah
Why what’s wrong with us cunt
…ɐᴉlɐɹʇsn∀ uᴉ ,ǝlᴉɥʍuɐǝɯ

Because a lot of us are dumb cunts.
Because of the fact that America is a Christian nation where White Jesus was born.
You say potato, I say Potahto.
And others say cunt!
The second person singular of “kunnen” (to be able to) is kunt in Dutch. And that’s how after an eon of speaking and reading English, I first noticed “can” doesn’t have an infinitive form in English.
we can create it, i propose “to cun”, because that will be funny.
The Dutch I know use the word kut liberally
Cause for swears we don’t stop at body parts
Because feminism is more normalized here, maybe? And so misogynistic slurs are less welcome.
We prefer different misogynistic slurs like bitch instead.
Oh there’s a slew of them for sure.
Pussy. Pussy is definitely another one Americans prefer over cunt.
I’ll happily call a guy a cunt and say a girl is being a dick. We have ascended beyond misogyny. The old meanings of the words have been usurped. Same for bitch etc.
Because conservative cancel culture and racism. Also the weird American Heresy that came out of the Third Reformation.
