"Cunt. It’s slang for vagina. It begins with a hard-c. It rhymes with punt, stunt and front. Use it lovingly, “that flower is opening up like a beautiful crimson cunt.” Use it with edge, “that little fucking cunt just cut me off.” Use it absurdly, “there’s a certain oaky cuntiness to this Merlot.” Use it frequently. And when someone balks or is morally offended, tell them it’s just a fucking word, lifted from a whore street in Old London and first used in print by James Joyce. Then gaze at them with judgmental disdain and tell them perhaps they’re the ones who need a morality check. Cunts."
Kurt Sutter, “A LITTLE BIT OF MY SEMANTIC THEORY OF SLURS AND HOW THAT RELATES TO MY AFFECTION FOR THE USE OF ‘SEE YOU AND TEA’”
My preferred synonym for vagina, actually. Cunt is not soft like Pussy. Pussy is disyllabic and cutesy and somewhat over done. But cunt…cunt is not only the original slang for what is between my thighs as in Gropecunt Lane, but it is hard and fast and full of life. It has a sharp edge that I like, passionate and gasping or quick and commanding. It does not mess around. It has a hard “t” that can be caught beautifully between the teeth and a moaning “u” in the middle. It is one simple, beautiful syllable that starts with the curling softness and ends hard. Just as it should.
Also ‘cunt’ doesn’t just refer to the vagina, but the whole region. This makes so much better than ‘vagina’, because when you talk about female genitalia as just the vagina you’re missing out on a lot of important stuff, like the labia and the CLITORIS!
