Reclaim the words that people use to put you down.

This is a red felt brooch hand-embroidered with the word in yellow. It measures approximately two inches in diameter, though each brooch is unique. 'Cunt' is pictured, but it is also available with the words 'slut', 'whore', 'bitch' and 'dyke'. Please note what word you would like in the Notes To Seller when you purchase.

Wear it on your jacket, your scarf or your t-shirt.

You know that I’m all about reclaiming the words that people use to put others down, and this is just another part of that. How can anyone insult you by hollering cunt, slut, bitch, dyke, when you’re already wearing the word proudly on your chest?

‘Cunt’ is a lovely word. Back in the good old days, ‘cunt’ was used as a title of respect for women, priestesses and witches. It is related to words from India, China, Ireland, Rome and Egypt, and was also a derivative of the names of various goddesses. Pretty cool, huh? I love the word because it’s so much more fun than merely saying ‘vagina’ and it really means the whole thing; vagina, clitoris, everything. Plus, people look at you funny when you say it.
