tbh it's a very offensive word anywhere, but for those with a sense of humour it's one hell of a beautiful word....

but...

i find americans just don't get it when i say 'you're all a bunch of cunts' after a set. in fact, they feel like i hate them.....

whereas when i say this in the UK everyone laughs and loves it.

yes, there is a real difference with this word i reckon....
