I think its just most women dont like the word for some reason

I think British people in general are probably some of the most easily offended people in the world. Every time I put the BBC on they seem to be talking about how there is too much swearing on TV and hows its to blame for all our problems. :rolleyes:
I really annoys me, its only a word FFS!!! If people hate swearing on TV that much then away and sell your telly. :47:
Rant over :52: -
Women dislike it, guys tend to use it as a derogatory term, but i have often found it to be the case that it can be used with a quiet hint of humour linked in there anyway.
Either way, i'm with Andy. It's a word - deal with it.

I think it's a cracking word.
-
it doesnt offend me at all, but then i dont associate it with my wee missus, i associate it with huns, and * folk, and boris johnston, i use the word too often, my bad :54:

:56:that guy cracks me up :icon_mrgreen:
still cant believe hes mayor of London :56: -
Out all the swear words i use think * comes up the most doesn't offende me in the slightest.

Its funny as * hearing the weans come out with it, they have picked it up off me and I've caught them a few times using it in general conversation with each other and it hilarious, their mums no too chuffed though.

Just seems to woman who are offended by the word, dont know why.
-
Americans hate the word, not sure why. I love swearing, I think its an interesting character trait if someone can swear well.

:56::56::56: a classy part with that mad man paulie:56::56: -
When I lived down south they didn't like the fact I use it every third word so had to moderate it, which was difficult. It's a real word anyway, it's in the dictionary and I use it in scrabble all the time.

:56::56: I tend to use it if someone annoys me but more often than not it's used out of jest with a tad of humor,, pay £5 and you will understand.
