Isn't the "C" word supposed to be a slang for the vagina??? It seems that the "C" word is more offensive than being called a "B", or $lut .......

How about not using any offensive words at all.

Yes the C word means vagina. I think it's kind of funny that they seem to be more offended when they're called a dog instead of a vagina.

Because it shows a complete lack of respect for a woman. Just as those other words do. That's what's wrong with society, no one should feel that any of the words you mentioned is good, better or worse to call a woman. Treat each other with respect. What's wrong with that? Or as the old adage goes, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."

It is because of the context it is used in. It's not the word itself that is offensive, it is the power that is given to it. It is nearly always meant in a highly offensive, extremely derrogatory manner.
HTH : )

Just like the P word that (rhymes with brick) you would not like a anyone to call you that would you? and if you don't mind then maybe you are a %rick.

Our reproductive organs are the most sacred parts of our being|
That is why we keep them covered|
We always cover and shroud that which is sacred and which contains profound mystery|
What you say is offensive because if vulgurizes the sacred|
It would be like calling the Blessed Sacrament some dirty name|
Get it?

because it's used in a deragatory way, not as a substitute for "vagina"
