Cvnt applies to women which make up approx 50% of the population.

so what? it's not nearly as ugly a word. cvnt isn't a word of hatred throughout history and a verbal display of how ugly we can be. cvnt is just another ugly anger word. it carries no history of government sanctioned torture, oppression, and practically any kind of negative -ism...

there's NO way cvnt is anywhere near as ugly a word as n!gger. n!gger wins by far.

That't not what I meant though. I have no problem calling a black person "a black person". But referring them to "blacks" or "a black" rubs me the wrong way.

Like - "those blacks down the road invited us over to dinner."
Or Like - "You know who I'm talking about, the guy from HR... he's a black."

Calling them "a" black is differnt then calling someone black.

But that is just dumb. Who the hell says that?

I would say "The black family down the road invited us over to dinner" or

"You know who I am talking about, the guy from HR..the black dude."

Honestly...

Brotha's call one another n1gger... heck, I've been called n1gger by some of my friends (who are black) and I didn't mind a bit.

Most offensive word? I vote for "religion". I can't think of anything else the world over that offends so many, so aggressively.

There are no offensive words.

Yup, racial slurs are mostly specific to one region, but words like the above are known and offensive everywhere english is spoken.
