    To AKA Smith

    "This is why that word can hurt."

    I am well aware that the word cunt can hurt, but I don't want the word banned, and rather I would like to reclaim it.

    Can a woman take pride in being called a cunt? I don't know? But I would like to think that it is possible.

    You and I are not disagreeing on anything, except the implication associated with the word motherfucker (you should use that word more often, it's a good one).
