Ok so you just decided to randomly explain that cunt is not an offensive word in some cultures and in some contexts to some guy who complained he was called a cunt once and by a Brit.
No reason why someone might think your comment was connected to OP’s comment. Nope none at all. Nicely done.
No no, there's a very good reason people might think that! It's called poor engagement with the written word. Another way to refer to it would be making ungrounded assumptions and then acting like it's the agree-upon reality. Very common nowadays.
I'd like to take responsibility for your incorrect reading of my comments, but it would unfortunately make no sense.
I implore you to take a break from the insinuations and instead quote directly any part of any of my comments that shows me saying what you believed me to be saying. You won't be able to, because it simply didn't happen.
The word cunt has radically different patterns of use in the USA vs in UK/AUS/IE/NZ. More cultural knowledge is useful and good. It's perfectly plausible that OP was unaware of that fact, and I therefore thought it could be useful knowledge, for OP and anyone else, regardless of the original anecdote, but possibly related to the original anecdote. That's for OP to decide, I don't know the details.
Is that clearer now for you?
I didn’t bother to read any of that. Except the last line. I can’t imagine I missed out on anything at all.
Ah, thank you for sparing me another misinterprtation, how good of you!
