I don't care. To me it's just a word. To me what is more important is how you say the word. You could call me a slob and say it in a mean way and it hurts me more than if you said "haha.... you're such a *****".

That has to be the most disrespectful word out there to call a woman. However, I can be called that over and over (which I haven't) and I wouldn't give a rats @ss.
The men/women that use that word just make themselves look bad.

Yes, it's a word that shouldn't be used to denigrate a woman.
When I was in grad school in the late 80's (and usually the only woman in the room--it was a traditionally male field) one of the other students used to refer to women by this term all the time. Finally one day, I'd had enough. I said to him, "You have no right to denigrate other women using terms that refer to parts of my body. If you have to call people names, use the parts of your own body to do it with!" It may seem silly, but I felt a man had no right to co-opt a woman's body to criticize and control other women with. There was a long pause in the middle of the seminar, and then the student apologized to me. He never said that word in my hearing again.
If the word is used, it should be in a positive, empowering way, which is pretty difficult to do with that word! (maybe it's more possible in the bedroom.)

It is really bad to be called that. And I could think of other words that are just as bad.

I've never been called that but it wouldn't end my world if someone did. It just sounds like such a nasty word.

I would never call any woman that, using language like that would say more about me than the woman in question.

I've never been called the C word.
I have been called a lot worse.

I'd rather be called that then late for dinner.
It is just a word.
