Cunt

At Harry's place, a decent article on cunt. I certainly agree with his argument that using the word as an insult does not imply misogyny. For me, it's a strong version of 'asshole', not an insult meant to imply 'you're so bad you're as bad as female genitalia'. The latter has nothing to do with it's use as a cuss word; it's the simple fact that it's currently the strongest word in the language.
