And I defend my dislike of "cunt" vs. "dick." The only way to really demean a guy on the basis of his sexuality is to imply that he's not masculine enough--that he's feminine or gay ("pussy", "fag"). "Cunt" and "slut" demean a woman because she's sexual and female--quite different. It's not a question of delicacy--I can swear like a sailor--it's a question of a woman being sexual itself being a negative.
"Dick" is too casual to compare to "cunt"--different levels of insult.

Does anyone know chicks who shorten words because they think it sounds cool? My wife has some friends who like to cut pieces off words during conversations and it drives me up a wall. For example, they'll say "Mary and I had a convo the other day" meaning "Mary and I had a conversation the other day". Another I heard was the use of the term "vag" for vagina - they seem to think that sounds cute. The worst is when they shorten "whatever" to "whatev" - I can barely hold my tongue when they speak like that to me. I really feel the need to say "Your slang makes you sound like you're challenged, my dear... its not cute". Just an FYI - if you do this word shortening thing, people probably ask each other what the hell is the matter with you behind your back.
