In all seriousness, what's the difference between c*** and cunt? If c*** is meant to mean cunt, then wouldn't it be just as easy to write cunt? On the other hand, does c*** suggest a level of naughtiness and forbidden promise that cannot be conveyed by the oafish cunt?
We're fortunate to be able to contribute to a forum where the word cunt isn't frowned upon, but as soon as you remove the unt and replace it with ***, boy, does it become a cunt of a word! Cuntology demands we reach a satisfactory accommodation, otherwise this most expressive and descriptive of words transforms into something very odd.
