There are a number of different ways in which this word can be used, besides being an informal name for female genitalia*, it can be used in at least two other ways:
1) A derogatory name for a person you intensely dislike;
2) As an acronym standing variously for Computer User Non-Technical, Cannot Understand New Technology, Cannot Utilise Normal Thinking.
No doubt there are others as well, but those mentioned here all share a common theme in that the person described is a bit of a twat.
*For some reason this is now perceived to be offensive, but during the Middle Ages in Britain it was a word in common use indeed, it still remains in some street names e.g. Gropecunt Lane.
"Malcolm'sballsed up his computer again and doesn't know why."
"He really is a cunt!"
Noun - an offensive word used to decribe someone who is so utterlyobnoxious no other word or phrase can accurately paint a mental picture of this person's personality...or lack of it.
A prime example of a cunt is my depressingly poisonous ex-wife:
Her personality is not disimilar to a combination of Bernard Manning, Roy Chubby Brown and Adolf Hitler after consuming copious amounts of acid and alcohol on a week-long bender. She is thick as pig shit, thinks she knows everything yet knows absolutely nothing, loud and oppressive both at home and in public, totally socially inept, bores the fuck out of everyone with her bigoted opininons, pisses off everyone she comes into contact with, loses any friend she makes or any job she gets, acts like a spoilt little brat, whinges about everything, is never happy, completely financially irresponsible, totally useless in every aspect of adult life, has a tantrum if she doesn't get her way, she's mentally unstable, gets horendously pissed and drives round to my house at 2am to scream the neigbourhood down, break into my house and beat me up, gets taken home by police TWICE (the first time accompanied by her large dog), throws knives and full pint glasses at me, smashes up the house, has no sense of self respect, a rude and obnoxious gobshite......i could go on and on indefinitely but rather than waste any more of my life on such a negative and malignant life sucking arsehole i simply refer to her...no..IT..with one simple word - Cunt. The only person in human existance ever to be worthy of such a nasty word.
Liz: "whinge whinge moan moan, i 'ate you, i'm gonna ruin your life, blah blah blah, av got nuffin!, av got no'won! it's m'yome!...*more depressing whinging and moaning*" (goes on for hours)....
Me: "Fuck off Liz, you're a cunt" (phone slammed down)
As he smiled and assured the world that he "cared passionately for the people of Iraq" Tony Blair revealed himself as the personification of a fucking cunt.
As the doctor inspected the vibrator lodged inside Mrs Thatcher's vagina, he turned and said "The fuckin' fuckers fucked up that fuckin' cunt's cunt."
1) vulva/vagina
Almost certainly a proper technical term for the female organ(s) - consider the number of similar-sounding terms in both Latin and Germanic languages. Became a taboo word simply because it related to both sex and femininity - but many prefer it, finding that other everyday terms like "pussy" just don't have the right sound.
2) stupid/contemptible person of either gender Only in America is this considered a specifically misogynistic insult. In Britain it is most likely to be heard amongst men quarelling.
An extremely offensive and explicit word meaning 'Politician'. The term is frequently used when members of the governmenttake advantage of the public or make a general stupid decision.
1. 'MP's have been stealing our money to pay for second homes!! What a pack of cunts they are!'
2. 'Bush is invading another country? What a cunt!'
3. 'Gordon Brown is a fucking cunt!......he hasn't done anything to offend me but in my opinion he looks rather like a cunt.'
