Can't say there is one tbh, there all the same to me.
I think the problem is people choose for one to be worse than the others then people follow and be like yeah that's definitely the worst one like c*nt for example.

It's largely context that makes words offensive. Although that includes cultural context - so it's probably good to be mindful of how words might land before using them.
For example, I got into an almighty flame war on another forum several years ago. Along with some other Australians and Brits, I argued that "bastard" isn't necessarily offensive - in my dialect it can mean "person" or even "friend". The Americans got pretty upset because obviously it's stigmatising unwed mothers and their children and the word should never be considered benign.
I went a bit  but was more mindful going forward. |

Any reference to ‘soft cheese’, I find offensive , if you were to put the word French in front of it then it would be a conversation stopper for me. These are the ultimate swear word in my opinion |

"Which word do you find personally offensive and why?
all swear words are offensive and generally said in anger "
Are they? I don't get offended by them. I call my friend fuck features as a term of endearment, she calls me other things. No offense from either of us and not a single hint of anger.
What you mean is "I find all swear words offensive". As you can clearly see there are many that don't take offense to them in the slightest, thus the word has lost power when used in their direction. |

The threat title and the first post are asking two different questions that require two different answers.
I can't think of a single "swear word" that bothers me, except maybe through excessive repetition. I'm terrible for accidentally dropping F-bombs in "polite" company.
All the words I find offensive aren't swearing. Slurs and hate speech, generally.

Where is the disagreement? You just corrected what you originally said based upon what I pointed out. |

"I love the word c@unt.
Trying to reclaim it as an accurate word for female genitals, without the sweary contexts.
I cannot abide the word pussy! Vulva or c@nt please."
Always drop the cunt bomb ! |

I give a shit, I don't intentially want to offend anyone, if I know something will offend I will adjust (to a point) slightly to not offend. I won't however walk around on eggshells or put additional effort in on the off chance that somebody may find it offensive.
I'm considerate but I'am not responsible for "your" feelings.
There is a difference between being yourself and intentionally being an inconsiderate cunt just because - granted for some people the two overlap fully. |

MOROCCO Wherever I lay my hat |
I have a right potty mouth. My ex would regularly call me a c*nt so I hate it when I hear anyone called that as it just stirs up emotions for me... but I will use the word when fucking |
