But the British say "cunt" all the time now.
"Cunt" is often used as a disparaging and obscene term for a woman in the United States, an unpleasant or stupid man or woman in the United Kingdom, or a contemptible man in Australia and New Zealand. However, in Australia and New
Zealand it can also be a neutral or positive term when used with a positive qualifier (e.g., "He's a good cunt"). The term has various derivative senses, including adjective and verb uses.
In 2006, feminist writer and English professor Germaine Greer argued that "'cunt' is one of the few remaining words in the English language with a genuine power to shock."
Cunt is one of the most offensive and hateful words in the English language. The exact origins of the word cunt are unknown, but it's recorded in the early
1200s as the name of a street in Oxford, England called Gropecuntlane, apparently a reference to prostitution. Both Chaucer and Shakespeare made puns
on cunt.
Use of the word as a term of abuse is relatively recent, dating from the late nineteenth century.[The word appears not to have been taboo in the Middle Ages, but became taboo towards the end of the eighteenth century, and was then
not generally admissible in print until the latter part of the twentieth century.
The etymology of cunt is a matter of debate, but most sources consider the word to have derived from a Germanic word (Proto-Germanic *kuntō, stem *kuntōn-), which appeared as kunta in Old Norse. Scholars are uncertain of the
origin of the Proto-Germanic form itself.[9] There are cognates in most Germanic languages, most of which also have the same meaning as the English cunt, such as the Swedish, Faroese and Nynorsk kunta; West Frisian and Middle Low German kunte; another Middle Low German kutte; Middle High German kotze (meaning "prostitute"); modern German kott; Middle Dutch conte; modern Dutch words kut (same meaning) and kont ("butt", "arse"); and perhaps Old English cot.
The etymology of the Proto-Germanic term is disputed. It may have arisen by Grimm's law operating on the Proto-Indo-European root *gen/gon "create, become" seen in gonads, genital, gamete, genetics, gene, or the Proto-Indo-European root *gʷneh₂/guneh₂ "woman" (Greek: gunê, seen in gynaecology). Relationships to similar-sounding words such as the Latin cunnus
("vulva"), and its derivatives French con, Spanish coño, and Portuguese cona,
or in Persian kos (کُس), have not been conclusively demonstrated. Other Latin
words related to cunnus are cuneus ("wedge") and its derivative cunēre ("to fasten with a wedge", (figurative) "to squeeze in"), leading to English words such as cuneiform ("wedge-shaped"). In Middle English, cunt appeared with many
spellings, such as coynte, cunte and queynte, which did not always reflect the
actual pronunciation of the word.
The word, in its modern meaning, is attested in Middle English. Proverbs of Hendyng, a manuscript from some time before 1325, includes the advice:
Ȝeue þi cunte to cunnig and craue affetir wedding.
(Give your cunt wisely and make [your] demands after the wedding.)

"Rock & roll" in 1959 meant anything that was marketed to teenagers, including artists like Paul Anka and Bobby Darin who made *mainly* pop records, and also including novelty instrumentals like "Quiet Village."

By today's standards, much of what was called R&R back then...isn't.
But then again, much of today's music which is referred to as "Pop"
sounds like R&R to me (e.g. Taylor Swift or the Jonas Brothers).

I assure you, no one would have said, in 1959, "Oh, that's Space age
pop." It was played on the Top 40 (or top however-many) radio station,
aimed at a teenage audience, and thus assumed to be rock & roll.
I liked it and bought the record.
Do you think "Witch Doctor" and "Purple People Eater" are R&R? Not now, they're not, but in the 1950s they were lumped into that category
because R&R was about who they were marketed to, not what they actually sounded like.

First off, I don't agree that it was aimed at a teenage audience. Secondly, lots of stuff on Top 40 radio in those days was not rock and roll and was not aimed at a teenage audience. Big hits like "Calcutta" and "Exodus" and "So Rare" and "Deck Of

Yes, I like them, but I heard them on my mother's radio station, not on
WINS or WMGM. That's the point. We referred to the stations that
catered to young people as rock & roll radio, and we referred to the
music they played as rock & roll.
I was too young to listen to Alan Freed and had no older siblings, so I never heard of him until he got into trouble...but what he meant by rock
& roll quickly changed into, as I said, a marketing category.

Well, you can dance to "Purple People Eater" if you really try hard...."Witch Doctor" not so much.
