The most obscene vowel (NSFW Text)
A while back, I was browsing a list of insults, and noticed the short "u" vowel sound seems to be over-represented in our most obscene phrases. To wit:
Cunt-punting Fuck-nugget
Cum-guzzling Thunder-cunt
Cock-juggling Cluster-fuck
Scum-sucking Cock-socket
Numb-nutted Cum-bucket
The short "i" sound earns an honourable mention for it's work with piss and shit, but the "u" rules when it comes to sex-related obscenity.
Are my observations accurate? Am I ignoring other obscenities?
If this hypothesis is the case, why would it be so?
