"If you will be so kind, say 'vagina' out loud a few times.

Strip away the meaning and listen solely to the phonetic sound. It resonates from the roof of your mouth.

A 'vagina' could be an economy car: 'That's right, Wanda! Come withing five hundred dollars of the actual sticker price, and you'll win this! A brand new Chrysler Vagina!'

Or a rodent: 'Next on Prairie Safari, you'll see a wily little silver-tailed vagina outwit a voracious pair of ospreys.'

Say 'cunt' out loud, again stripping away the meaning. The word resonates from the depths of your gut. It sounds like something you definitely don't want to tangle with in a drunken brawl in a dark alley.

A 'cunt' could be a serious weather condition: 'Next on Nightline, an exclusive report on the devastation in Kansas when last night's thunder cunt, with winds exceeding 122 miles an hour ripped through that state.'

Or a monster truck: 'The City Areana is proud to present the Coors Crush 'Em Demolition Round Up competition, where Randy Sam's Beast of Burden will challenge Mike Price's undefeated Raging Cunt in the 666 barrel jump.'

Moving from phonetics to etymology, 'vagina' originates from a word meaning sheath for a sword."
