The word beginning with C for vagina is in the English language as well. How many people do you think I would offend if I said it on here?
I think Gayle is great for apologising for potentially causing offence even though nobody said explicitly that they are offended. As I was taught in a lecture the other day, just because nobody is protesting doesn't mean it is right.
