cunt
Vulgar genital term
Cunt is a vulgar term for the female genitals, and one of the strongest insults in English.
In American usage, calling someone a cunt is deeply offensive—often considered the most taboo of insults.
In British and Australian usage, cunt is still vulgar but more versatile: it can be an insult, but also a neutral or even affectionate term for a person: He's a funny cunt.
The word's power varies dramatically by region.
