Toward gender neutral cusswords

Bitch is such a great word, so many connotations. It can be good, bad and ugly. I use "wuss" for both genders instead of the p-word. The p-word is to close to the c-word for my taste. Others that I am particularly offended by are "dyke" and "fag." I don't see the need to include sexual orientation in an insult. You don't go around calling people "straight."
I think cunt is a great word. Love the phonics of it. Rolls right off the tongue. I have more problems that imply there is something wrong with being a woman, like hag- if you are ovre a certain age as a female, that alone makes you a negative (is there a corellating word for the man), or old maid- like if you are of a certain age as a female and arent marrie d(again, is there a correlating word for the man?). Because we only have these words for women and bc they are applied on objective criteria, that makes them misogynistic.

You cunt.
