[lbo-talk] She is one ugly cunt....

[Tayssir John Gabbour]

We should note that not everyone here is an underwear model. When we
call someone an "ugly cunt", I think some females in our audience who
consider themselves ugly will feel self-conscious, a tiny bit more
hesitant to engage with others lest they be humiliated for cosmetic
reasons.

Same with fat jokes. Maybe many such people take it in stride, and in
fact crack such jokes themselves; but I'm sure a significant number
feel nonplussed about being in a position where they're expected to
laugh along... at themselves.

Maybe it takes more work to find a good shocking insult, while still
being concerned about solidarity; but given how much people here talk
about Shakespeare, I'm sure that they have many resources at their
disposal to verbally slice someone apart in a hundred different ways.
;)

All the best,

 Tj
