But the word "cunt" seems to serve no purpose except as a button to press in people. Why provide the button? It's pointless. It's just a word.

But yes, I know what you mean.
But then that would have to apply for EVERY word that someone would take offense to, including "dick" (or being called one).

I've always believed that everyone has a button to push. It may take a while with some, but it's there.
