    It baffled me for a while until I realized that some people take it as a reduction of them to that body part. Like “the only useful part of you is your cunt/dick”.

    I always saw it as more of a metaphor, dicks fuck things up, assholes make things shitty, cunts are fucked (and each of those are metaphors since I don’t think there’s anything wrong with literally fucking or being fucked as long as everyone involved is good with it).

    Though I still don’t understand why people give others the kind of power over them where they can upset them with their choice of words, before the meaning of their message even comes into play.
