    The words you’ve suggested are more objectionable than the word you’re objecting to.

    If you want to claim a position of supremacy and justice in linguistic expression, you should educate yourself on the words you’re choosing to use.

    I’m not asserting that the word bitch is more objectionable than any other ‘curse’ word.

    You’re claiming that.

      The B word at present targets women specifically. The other words can be used extremely generally and even liberally in good humour over the pond.

      I’m quite surprised you take the opposite position on this, but I’m happy to learn more.

        I’m not offended by it. I know of folks who would rank many of the words you’ve listed as much more harshly interpreted. In addition american broadcasting standards are a good starting point, if you’re asking in good faith for understanding the idea.

        What is your first/preferred language?
