"You are my gulab jamun, you are my jalebi,
let's get to slammin and make me a baby."

--Old Hindu love proverb

Limejeet, you stop this crazyness right now!
Don't make me slap you in the currybag and pummel your falafel.
Are you listening to me Limejeet?

oh yeah... I somehow neglected the word BASTARD which is also in reference to a man. For example, you'd never say "That bitch is such a bastard." But alternatively, an acceptable usage would be:

"That son-of-a-bitch is a real fuckin bastard." And we all intuitively understand that the speaker is specifically refering to a man.

I was just thinking about it... and I thought it was kinda interesting that the meaning behind so-called 'curse words' are often very gender specific. I don't mean in the literal sense like how 'douchebag' is a purportedly femenine 'hygeine product' (for lack of a better descriptor). But in terms of who these words describe. For example:

1. Ass MALE
2. Asshole MALE
3. Fucker MALE
4. Bitch FEMALE
5. Douche(bag) MALE
6. Motherfucker MALE
7. Slut FEMALE
8. Whore FEMALE
9. Cocksucker MALE
10. Son-of-a-Bitch MALE
11. Cunt UNISEX
12. Prick MALE


Of 12 of the most popular vulgar insults, 11 of them are reserved for reference to a person of a specific gender. Not only that, but each has a very specific definition of the negative traits associated. For example, while 'asshole' contains the root word 'ass', the meaning of the 2 words are nonetheless quite different. Specifically, an ass refers to a man who is making a fool of himself whereas an asshole refers to a man who goes out of their way to make people miserable.

Also, while my selection of 12 words is by no means scientific, it is interesting to note that 8 of the words are used to describe men, compared to a measly 3 attributed to women. Not only that, but the literal definitions of the words seem to be completely irrelevent when it comes to gender-referencing of the vulgarity; for example, a man can be a cunt a prick and even a cocksucker simultaneously.

eric, all philosophical quibbling aside, if u were to approach a group of black guys and say, "wuzuuuuuuuuuuup niggers," ur shattered body would be reclaimed from a dumpster... if u want to look at it from a purely pragmatic pov... damn the shit u learn in a soc class could get u killed if ure not careful... speaking of the "n" word, did u see what that group of "n"s on the pistons did to the "n"s on the lakers? i hope u did, because it was a great game.... not just that but a great series overall, definitely the best since 94... DEEEEEEEEEEETROIT BASKETBALL.... i just love the way those guys play, and for the first time in the playoffs they were executing their offense to perfection... i always said they had a great chance against the lakers but i never expected a blowout... in other news gary payton is a cunt, a giant smelly one with a yeast infection

love,

Feeling the love for Big Brutha yet?


And what's this validation of existence business?

Yes, as Pete so lovingly put it, thank you Alison for giving my funny bone so much fodder. From now until we tire of it completely, the new insults will be "tampon" or "condom".

For example; AD, you are such a bloody condom!!

alison, you're such a maxi-pad.
