For me it depends on the venom with which it is said.
When people spit it out as if it's the vilest possible ephitet in the world then I worry about the misogynist overtones.

Nothing Zen has written in any of his posts suggests this in his case; in fact he went further and questioned even his own use.

I use it myself when I want to use a really bad swear, as we said as teenagers.
I'm not sure I've ever said it audibly in company, polite or otherwise. This is probably not true, but it would have been used humorously.

When I used to stack shelves there were a good few brands of poorly designed shampoo bottles which would fall over if you so much as breathed on them, taking out all their pals so you had to redo a whole section. They got a whole litany of bad swears muttered at them.
