Except there you are getting into the whole thing of belittling a man by suggesting that he has female traits. I’m never sure whether the idea is that women are inferior or if it’s a homophobic thing. Probably both, I suspect.

As a Brit, I have to say there’s some ugly subtext going on when it’s used here. We have plenty of words for “idiot” and “cunt” is much nastier. Or so it seems to me.
