What do you think is the most offensive word in the English language?

[Goosemaster]

non-believer

it attempts to place an entire society above one man or woman

Yeah, that word shocks me even in R-rated movies.

The F word is just used too much and is just too diluted to be really offensive.

I don't find the term "non-believer" offensive at all. Do you think that you possibly get beat down for going into a bar in the wrong side of town and yelling "NON-BELIEVERS" at the top of your lungs? Most likely not.

one's just a body part, the other is a racial slur.

non-believer can start a war

Well, you hear n!gger on the radio and in pop culture, but not so much c*nt.

I'm sure it's being watched very carefully, but again, as long as the conversation is kept mature, I doubt there will be any problem with it. As mentioned above, this was a question in a college classroom where everyone had to verbalize their answers.

I would say the word is "No". People have such a sense of entitlement that telling them no for whatever reason usually pisses them off.

Ron, who's paying for it all now? The current "fiscally responsible" party is just borrowing and borrowing, instead of actually raising taxes to pay for their rampant spending...

This is P&N...

THE "c" word.

 

[randay]

well you can either go by quality or quantity, if you go by quality, then itll differ from region to region and person to person. so quantity is probably the easiest to find a winner of, which would be "fvck".

 

[theprodigalrebel]

The c-word is that bad in the US, eh? I would think the n-word is much more offensive.

 

[zinfamous]

N*gger trumps c*nt any day. Both are insults; only one has history, and social implications behind it. Also, use of c*nt is directed at one person specifically, and does not necessarily imply the offending user is a mysogynist. Indeed, plenty of women will call another woman a c*nt with out hesitation. However, one use of the word n*gger, while often directed at one person, tends to imply that the user is making a statement about an entire race (they are certainly letting their opinions on the subject known, being that most who aren't racist shy away from the word). Chris Rock proposes a good argument on the topic (yeah, pretty much what Pryor said--I'm referring to the difference between African Americans and n*ggers), but n*gger does have far more behind it thatn c*nt ever will.

As far as these forums though, I would have to agree that "evolution" or "atheist" are the most offensive words

Personally, I'd have to go with "n!gger" as the one that has the ability to piss off the greatest amount of people.

That word only upsets people when it's said by the wrong type of person. If it is used by the "right" type of person it is cool. Which is just as racists as the wrong type of person using the word.

I hate cussing in general and wish that I had the will-power to not cuss at all (My team losing ruins it for me sometimes ) - Irregardless, I never use any really truly bad language.

But the one word that I never ever speak (even when reading a book) is the n-word. I just find it incredibly degrading. Granted, I have never heard the c-word used regularly nor would I ever use it.
