just so ya'll know, "cunt" derives from two words, "coony" and "cun" (one
of which is latin, the other is greek, though i forget which is which),
both of which were at one time considered to be RESPECTFUL towards women,
and were often used in reference to priestesses and whatnot. it is only in
the modern era that cunt has become a bad word. i got this from a female
sexuality class i took last semester, so hopefully i haven't been
misinformed. in any event, to reitterate my lesbian professor's articulate
phrasing: "we must reclaim cunt as our own. POWER TO THE PUSSY!"
so there.
