checked out Wikipedia on this one: "Cunt" is also used as a term of abuse: in American English, it is mainly directed at women, and tends to imply that the named person is extremely nasty and unpleasant in a way that bitch does not imply. It is generally considered the most offensive description one can attribute to a female. It is also sometimes directed at men as a slur, as it implies a deficit of masculinity. In British English it is mainly directed at men, and is considered an insulting swear-word, implying that the named person is extremely obnoxious and malicious. A known euphemism for the word, originating within the London area, but now having more widespread use, especially within the south of England, is the phrase 'see you next Tuesday'; C (see) U (you) Next Tuesday. An example of usage would be: "Oh that bloke is such a see you next Tuesday".
