I think a woman can use that term - a very female one at that - with more authenticity than anyone else. Is it really any worse than the others in common usage? Like twat, cock, prick, arse, arsehole, and a few others I probably have forgotten...

Edited to add, with a slight smirk - bussy?

Weird isn't it? How we use those terms as swear words? Kind of betrays how we feel about sex. And the bits we use in that particular delightful pastime.

heisenberg that's why your continuous annoying use of words inaccurately and with pointed malice and childish acrimony on this site annoys me immensely, you should be banned.

Words have meaning and carry import but you use them as if nothing matters, and probably to you nothing does, but I don't want to be assailed by your ignorance every time I come onto the site.
