"common" and "insult" I believe, but if you think a word that refers to a female dog and a word that refers to a female sex organ are gender-neutral, well...
It's about cultural context, c*nt is deployed in reference both to men and women in Australia
In the US, too, but the usage is always "you are acting like a woman and being a woman is bad so you are bad"
that's what 'slur' means
That simply isn't what it means in Australia. I can't be bothered arguing with you over something as stupid as usage of a word in a country I live in and you dont, so I won't be replying further.
