But it seems they can't speak without doing it - like it's programmed into their speech.

No doubt the c-word has a foot in the Australian common vernacular door, and within a generation it will probably have made itself at home inside...

Currently, it's a male socioeconomic marker where it's acceptable without adjectival modifiers when used as part of a greeting... as in, 'How's it goin' c~nt?'

Inspired by the YouTube comedy series, How to Talk Australians, a mate of mine (and a good 'c~nt'!), tried his hand at writing a comedy spinoff episode where an Indian immigrant, eager to assimilate, listens to two tradies' bantering with each other and cottons on to the notion that, 'How's it goin', c~nt?' is in general parlance and, not aware of its socioeconomic restrictions, uses it on his private-school-educated accountant.

Cu*t is not even considered a cuss word with my son's generation.

"Hey you crazy cu*t how you been?"

Yep... currently when preceded by an adjective... It's generally still an insult when not.

'You're a crazy c~nt' - good,
'you're a c~nt' - bad.
