Hi all!
Firstly, I'll apologise but this post will be quite vulgar.

Okay.
Here are the numbers of stories found if I use the search stories function in literotica for the following commonly-used anatomical words :
cunt = 94K
pussy = 186K
vagina = 39K (14%)
cock = 201K
dick = 91K (presumably not all are "Richard")
penis = 57K (20%)
(Unsurprisingly, the clinical terms are used a lot less frequently than the vulgar terms - and I'm sure there are plenty of others that I haven't thought of / bothered to check.)
Now when I write I will use the vulgar terms if they seem necessary, but at the same time I don't want to use a word that seems either <I>too</I> vulgar or infantile. My desire is to write something that is interesting and hopefully arousing rather than offensive - and thus for that reason I tend to avoid "cunt" in favour of the word "pussy" unless I am trying to emphasise the uncivilised nature of a scene. (To me the former has always seemed ruder, and I have heard some women say that they don't like it.)
Are there any vulgar words that you would avoid, either because they seem too vulgar or too infantile? Do you not care so long as the terms used aren't ridiculous, or do you try to avoid profanity altogether?
