7 Nasty Words That Make Women Cringe

#1 Are These The Nastiest Words A Woman Should Hear?

500 ladies were asked which words they believed were the nastiest things to say when speaking to a woman. The survey was based on a phenomenon known as word aversion a feeling of intense, irrational distaste for the sound or sight of a particular word or phrase. Together with the University of Pennsylvania and Knix Wear, they came up with this list of the worst words...

#2 Panties

Believe it or not, panties made this list. People use the word to describe women's underwear. And particularly, skimpy underwear. But, according to the survey, panties is "icky" and women hate it when men use it as a "polite way" to describe their undergarments. Hey, don't get your panties in a bunch, they're only underwear.

#3 Squirt

Many women become uneasy when they hear the word squirt, simply because of its sexual connotation. 68 percent of the female respondents said this word makes them feel uncomfortable and uneasy. The word has many meanings but if she's a squirter, she doesn't want to hear about it. It's nasty.

#4 Flap

Apparently it's that bulge that overhangs from the belly, but we're not sure why this is considered a nasty word nobody wants to hear, unless they are referring to that 'other' flap.... The truth hurts I suppose... deal with it ladies, a lot of women have a FLAP! LOL.

#5 Curd

Little Miss Muffett loved her curd. Lots of Canadians love it too. Up there it's a delicious snack poutine. The dish that originated in Quebec, is made with french fries and cheese curds topped with a light brown gravy-like sauce. Sounds delicious, however, the women in the focus group associate âÂ€Â˜curd' with odor and discharge. Ugh. Probably a yeast infection. No wonder they found it rather 'tasteless'.

#6 Chunky

Much like curd, if you're associating a nasty-sounding word with food, like chunky peanut butter or guacamole, women are okay with it. But, during the focus group the ladies were quick to point out that using a word like âÂ€Â˜chunky' to describe someone's size or shape is definitely unacceptable. Ladies, get over it, chunky is the new creamy.

#7 Moist

Probably one of the worst words to make the list, this one actually does make one think of something dirty. One woman said it made her feel like a damp troll. However, who doesn't like moist cake or turkey? Nothing tastes good all dried up, so a little moist is a good thing!

#8 Queef

It's a completely normal and healthy occurrence. A fart from another hole. A queef is the result of a trapped pocket of air getting pushed out of the woman's vagina. That doesn't change it from being one of the words that make woman a tad uncomfortable. I had never heard it before and had to look it up... and yes, it's in the dictionary!
