I've heard more casual homophobia and racism than I have people using **** in the school I work in.

As a non-British person, I find myself questioning if I pronounce "can't" without sounding offensive. I remember the other day I had an unfortunate incident with pronouncing "beach" - very delicate nuances

I use to think it was , but compared to personal insults or more nasty words etc it just doesn't seem as offensive .

But I think it's still an unpleasant word and it's over used alot , I still laugh if a horrible person is called that word though .
