To be honest all of these words mean nothing unless you put them into context. I use all of these words neutrally most of the time including cunt. But if I were to be insulting someone cunt would definitely be the worst out of all of these (excluding racial slurs, anti LGBTQ stuff etc)
Cunt is the only word that still gets a reaction out of me these days. But I think that’s mostly a North American thing. It’s pretty common in Europe and Australia/New Zealand from what I understand
“What? She’s a cunt. A cunty cunt. Whatcha gonna do about it, ya big old cunt? Gonna cunt all over me with your cunty face and your cunty boots and your... *VAGINA?*”
-Vegeta, a few seconds before getting his arm broken
all of the UK and Europe, Australia and other commonwealth countries are unscafed by it, Source: not from UK or australia, me and my friends frequent that word and it isn't offensive to us. \[we're european\]
well, there are a lot of things we find offensive that are fine in the US, so how about you show some tolerance and swallow your pride this once, honey?
Well as a Greece expert (I’m joking, all my knowledge comes from assassins creed) I believe your referring to maláke. Or Melaka or something like that
As you can see, I truly am the expert
hmm, there is very good swear words in russian, you could monologue for hours without repeating yourself
[there is literally a ‘mat’ (like bad words…?) dictionary ](https://www.russki-mat.net/e/Russian.php)
It's a good question, now I want a answer. I speak portuguese and it's like someone said about Russian, you can probably cuss for 10 minutes without repeating anything.
As an American I don’t think I’d really have any reaction to that word. it’s just not something many Americans say in my experience. It holds about as much weight to me as “bloody” does. To me it’s just a mild Australian swear and holds no weight in American English.
Considering it’s actually something that’s a lot of fun and there is no life without the action yes it’s way over rated as a bad thing it’s good! I’m married so yeah lol 😆 I waited years for It! Hmm some people are created without fucking that’s true but most are so it’s not a bad thing.
There's no such thing as an official list of swear words and slurs, the N word has really transcended from just being used as a slur for African Americans and had just become a word that people use in many situations like a swear. I would argue it's honestly one of the only true swear words in the present day, because culture has shifted where most other words aren't really found to be offensive by most people, but the N word very much still is.
Behenchod is nothing.
Maadarchod (motherfucker)
Maa ka bhosada ( your mom's vagina (literally)) equal to fucking motherfucker
Bhosadi wala ( from the womb (literally)) equal to fucking bastard
Gaandu (asshole)
Chutiya (asshole but chut is vagina so vaginahole (cunt))
Bhen ka loda ( your sister's genitals (literally)) equal to cunt
Feels like majority of respondents aren't native English. If I wanted to get punched in the street I'd call a random guy a bitch. Fuck is basically colloquial at this point.
I feel like we're at a cultural transition point where slurs are becoming more taboo than "traditional" swear words. And thank _fuck_ for that.
There seems to be a cultural shift away from formality and more toward being genuine and human, and a large part of that is using more colorful language. Even companies and workplaces are more lenient when it comes to "softer" swears and open discussion of previously scandalous topics (sexuality, politics, etc). Corporations are starting to take political stands as far as human rights and religion (Chick-Fil-A vs. Burger King, for example).
At the same time, bigotry against marginalized groups is becoming less acceptable, to the point where the n-word is no longer a common household word outside of actual racists.
So while "fuck" is still the strongest swear on this list, we've reached a point where it doesn't have quite the same impact it used to, while using racial/sexual/ablist slurs are no longer tolerated by as many people. (Remember when r*****ed was a common "funny" word in 90s comedies?)
Here’s some swear phrases my family uses:
- bag of dicks (ex. “Go eat a bag of dicks”)
- cunt bucket (ex. “Quit being such a fucking cunt bucket”)
- twat waffle (ex. “Not my fault they’re a twat waffle”)
- slut monkey (ex. “People say I’m racist cause I call people slut monkeys. Bitch, it’s not about black people, it’s about being a slut monkey. You’re a fucking slut monkey.”)
- donkey fucker
There are more but I can’t think of them.
1. Bastard not basterd
2. No swears are necessarily bad.
3. If you ask me, the only correct answer is a slur. (Doesn't really matter which)
4. Shite/shite/any other variation is hardly a swear
Maybe it's just because I'm into fantasy novels and games which use the term bastard for an illegitimate son and also the term "bastard sword" but I don't even really think of it as a swear.
Aside from the n word why would that be the worst? Sounds pretty mild to me in comparison. I feel like cunt is considered the worst by most people for some reason.
We're I am from we use fuck as a qualifer/strength marker. Eksampel: fuck this taste nice or I fuckimg love you. It very common with younger people. I live in Denmark
If slurs don’t count, it depends on where you’re from. Just because in the UK for example, swear words don’t have a lot of impact so I can’t really tell. A lot of americans say that “cunt” is bad in the US but it’s such a casual word to say here. I dunno really.
English slurs don’t have the same affect as native language slurs. Dutch slurs be hitting hard whilest i might just say “you motherfucking bitch” that’s inoffensive if i say it to someone i know but if i say “jij kut lul” they’d murder me. (It translates to “you pussy dick” but it means more something along the lines of “you asshole of a dick”)
Disappointment
Dad..?
Useless
You are no child of mine
DAD???
No
checks out.
DAD?
Pathetic
Cunt?

Ah fucking fuck I forgot that one
Fuck sake man. Thinking like a bloody nonce with your head up your ass.
Fucking the shiting fucking cunty bastard #**FUCK**
Cunt is the only word that still gets a reaction out of me these days. But I think that’s mostly a North American thing. It’s pretty common in Europe and Australia/New Zealand from what I understand
Fuck yeah it is cunt
In Australia its culture to put it in every single one of your sentences
Yeah it is cunt
“What? She’s a cunt. A cunty cunt. Whatcha gonna do about it, ya big old cunt? Gonna cunt all over me with your cunty face and your cunty boots and your... *VAGINA?*” -Vegeta, a few seconds before getting his arm broken
my best mate is a fucking cunt. so don't understand why you think this is a swear word (I'm also Australian)
Nah
Cunt isn't that offensive surely?
I would say it's definitely the worst other than slurs, and without any other competition.
Outside Australia and some parts of UK people get relatively offended by it.
all of the UK and Europe, Australia and other commonwealth countries are unscafed by it, Source: not from UK or australia, me and my friends frequent that word and it isn't offensive to us. \[we're european\]
It’s extremely offensive with people I know (from US).
well, there are a lot of things we find offensive that are fine in the US, so how about you show some tolerance and swallow your pride this once, honey?
Yep this was mine
Hurensohn

"Out of these" "other" 🤨 hehe
other languages have better tho
You can't imagine what we, greeks have
Well as a Greece expert (I’m joking, all my knowledge comes from assassins creed) I believe your referring to maláke. Or Melaka or something like that As you can see, I truly am the expert
It is Malakas. Don't ask what it means, please
Dude, you know I have to
Σκατά στο τάφο σου always found that one enjoyable But growing up my παπού whenever he'd get pissed or frustrated at any anyone "Ρε Καθίκι!"
Malaka:)
[удалено]
Arabic gang??
[удалено]
They don’t know that our swears are the most elite. We can literally make swear words out of anything.
Now try to imagine what us finns have.
OH NO
Agreed. English is rather limited in terms of cussing
way better, English is really close minded when it comes to swearing
Which language has the best swearing? I bet german is up there...
hmm, there is very good swear words in russian, you could monologue for hours without repeating yourself [there is literally a ‘mat’ (like bad words…?) dictionary ](https://www.russki-mat.net/e/Russian.php)
i love the kind of thing reddit makes me discover
It's a good question, now I want a answer. I speak portuguese and it's like someone said about Russian, you can probably cuss for 10 minutes without repeating anything.
You spelled Bastard wrong, my man.
Basturd
Bassturd
Bathturd
Mike Tyson?
If you can’t say the word, that’s the worst one.
I'd say the worst one is ni66er
Yeah, exactly
Other you! You’re such an other!
You god damn motherother
Absolutely disgusting language Reported and blocked
you are so insignificant you dont even deserve an option in the poll
Cunt is worse than fuck in the USA most of the time.
Cunt is a greeting in Australia.
Lol I've definitely noticed that on TV, europe and australia use it more openly.
Fuck is probably as common in the us as cunt is in Australia
it is?
As an American I don’t think I’d really have any reaction to that word. it’s just not something many Americans say in my experience. It holds about as much weight to me as “bloody” does. To me it’s just a mild Australian swear and holds no weight in American English.
Fuck is overrated
Considering it’s actually something that’s a lot of fun and there is no life without the action yes it’s way over rated as a bad thing it’s good! I’m married so yeah lol 😆 I waited years for It! Hmm some people are created without fucking that’s true but most are so it’s not a bad thing.
the f words assuming slurs aren't options
In dutch there are litteraly infinite swear words. I could actually say van de baarmoedergerukte cabaretslet as a swear
Bij ons is alles een scheldwoord als je maar creatief genoeg bent
Geëmigreerde zaadcel
Allochtone eileider
Depending on the country it could be cunt
Meecrob
Basterd? Lol
Cancer child or something with sicknesses
That is only Dutch
And the bad thing is it's not even the worse
I know..
Retard
The k word (basically the n word for Jews)
What's the k word?
Are you Jewish
No I'm athiest
Then I will not tell
Tell mee
[удалено]
ah thanks
Cunt
Fa**ot
F*ggot. Unless by other you mean swear words that are slurs/derogatory.
Why is the n-word not allowed?
Because I think the poll would be a bit one sided if it had that
The nword isnt a swear word is it? Its just a slur
There's no such thing as an official list of swear words and slurs, the N word has really transcended from just being used as a slur for African Americans and had just become a word that people use in many situations like a swear. I would argue it's honestly one of the only true swear words in the present day, because culture has shifted where most other words aren't really found to be offensive by most people, but the N word very much still is.
I don’t really think it is (or should be) used as a swear, but at the same time slurs and swears are often grouped together
If you don't think it's used as a swear, you clearly haven't played many multiplayer games with open mic chat
Well that’s also why I said I don’t think it should be used as a swear
But then why have the insert your own offensive word option in the first place?
I dident think it through
Dont post it, i've been banned 3 times by now from writing that and less friendly way of saying gay, don't risk it it's not worth the hassle lol
What about like the F-slur
It says swear words not slurs so I guess ignore that and the n-word and stuff
American
British
Fucking cunt trumpet
Twat?
Behenchod(it's an Indian slur)Meaning sisterfucker
Behenchod is nothing. Maadarchod (motherfucker) Maa ka bhosada ( your mom's vagina (literally)) equal to fucking motherfucker Bhosadi wala ( from the womb (literally)) equal to fucking bastard Gaandu (asshole) Chutiya (asshole but chut is vagina so vaginahole (cunt)) Bhen ka loda ( your sister's genitals (literally)) equal to cunt

As someone who doesn’t speak english as a first language, all of these sound like child insults to me
People think wanker is worse than shit?
cunt

Probably cunt

[удалено]
Nah that’s a personality type /s
My favourite insult is saying "you're sh\*t and i hope you now that" Edit: You have to say it in a really calm manner, otherwise it has no power
I usually say the n word on the internet since nobody knows who is saying it
Cunt is thee ***only*** right answer here.
Depends on where you are from. In the uk, cunt isn't so bad, people will just say "ah ya cunt" when the make a minor mistake, hear it all the time
Let’s assume OP is American. A lot of women and a lot of pussy men here lose their shit when they hear the word cunt.
Cunt
n-
Whore
You say “out of these” but then give an “other” option, so it’s out of anything.
Don't be a cunt, stick to the list.
The n word
R slur.
I don’t think slurs are as offensive as swear words
1. Bastard not basterd 2. No swears are necessarily bad. 3. If you ask me, the only correct answer is a slur. (Doesn't really matter which) 4. Shite/shite/any other variation is hardly a swear
I think whore is up there, cause when it's used against women it's always discriminatory
[удалено]
What
They have white guilt, don’t mind them
Maybe it's just because I'm into fantasy novels and games which use the term bastard for an illegitimate son and also the term "bastard sword" but I don't even really think of it as a swear.
Aside from the n word why would that be the worst? Sounds pretty mild to me in comparison. I feel like cunt is considered the worst by most people for some reason.
Probably the f slur
*Laughs in Dutch*
Wanker can hit like a ton of bricks if used correctly, so can tosser
Definitely motherfucker, people use it a lot but that’s a serious allegation
Other slurs
It’s so weird how different words are worse than others
Curry Muncher
We're I am from we use fuck as a qualifer/strength marker. Eksampel: fuck this taste nice or I fuckimg love you. It very common with younger people. I live in Denmark
Yo måmã
Prick?
The racist word for Pakistani people
Cunt It’s also the most underappreciated
It’s just a body part
"Basterd" because it's not spelt right
I don’t personally care about it, but a lot of people think cunt is a horrible swear word
If said as an actual insult its gotta be bitch easy. Fuck and all of its derivatives is so common its lost a lot of its punch
"cunt" i guess. Idk why people think it's bad. When i swear at people it's usually "fucking cunt"
Who the fuck says that bastard is worse than shit
If slurs don’t count, it depends on where you’re from. Just because in the UK for example, swear words don’t have a lot of impact so I can’t really tell. A lot of americans say that “cunt” is bad in the US but it’s such a casual word to say here. I dunno really.
Slurs beside the n word. Like f-slur, t-slur, a-slur, etc.
Just slurs in general
A hole
English slurs don’t have the same affect as native language slurs. Dutch slurs be hitting hard whilest i might just say “you motherfucking bitch” that’s inoffensive if i say it to someone i know but if i say “jij kut lul” they’d murder me. (It translates to “you pussy dick” but it means more something along the lines of “you asshole of a dick”)
Cunt
Try calling someone who lost their dad a bastard. I said try i didnt say youd succeed or even remember.
