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

in glasgow, most people use it all the time

[caprimint]

I didn't vote on the basis of my personal opinion. It's only a word but it's technically seen as one of the worst.

[Shaun]

As an insult, sure, but it's certainly not something I refrain from saying in the same vein as, say, the N word, the F word (rhymes with maggot) or the P word (rhymes with tacky).

I also hate any swear word coming from a child... the number of people I know who swear freely in front of their children

[AnnieK]

I don't find it offensive but I know plenty of people who do. I suppose context is key, but I'm not easily offended with words.

A friend of mine hates the word prick and gets really offended by that but most people find that fairly tame in comparison

[ethanjames]

no not really idk why people get so offended about it
theres so many worse words like homophobic/racist slurs

[JerseyWins]

The poll was tough for me to vote in but I'm not sure how to make it easier either. It's kinda a little of both "one of the worst offensive words" and "not really up there with the worst" ... it's like equally on par with a lot of words for me that are high up there as pretty bad words (depending on context) but still not as bad as a FEW other words someone could use.

[MTVN]

I always consider it the worst swear word but that's in comparison to f___ and s____ etc, wasn't really thinking about some of the extreme racist/bigoted insults that are more offensive

[MTVN]

I do think it's used too freely though given that its also a sexist term even though it's not often used as that

All words are beautiful.

its context, in some places in Glasgow, it's nearly a term of endearment

Its all about the context. Txhe C word doesn't bother me when its used in conversation about someone. If someone said to me, my boss is a real 'c' that's fine. It would offend me if someone called me a 'c' and I guess that's why I've been known to use it on the odd occasion to offend someone.

The word that begins with f and ends with ch is probably one of the more nasty names to call someone.

Why do I have no idea what this is

[jaxie]

One of the worst words and unclassy. Then again I don't swear a lot n the whole. Not for any moral reason really just that I think it's smarter to be able to have a disagreement without resorting to swearing.
