Not mentioned is the large, laaarge youth subculture, sometimes called the ‘alt crowd’, that it’s become popular as a positive term- but honestly it’s permeated into the mainstream for sometime already as well. Calling things cunty or saying someone looks “so cunt” or “so cunty” is a term of praise and endearment in basically any situation I can think of among 3-4 separate social circles I’m in. The cutoff is pretty quick- I’d say the proportion of people who would be taken heavily aback has a sharp uptick starting around 26-28 year olds.

It’s not just Reddit, it’s tiktok and Instagram, the main, or at least two extremely, inconceivably large propagaters of youth slang and culture.
