'Cunt' has too much baggage, I think. Whenever I hear the word, I can only think of one of the greasy thugs at my old school shouting it down the hallway at another group of people. I couldn't stand that.
Personally, I think 'pussy' is a lot less vulgar, as well as a lot of the little pet names they've been given. 'Cunt' has more harsh consonants, and will always stand out in my mind as a four-letter word that dirty high-school drop-outs shout at one another.
In the end, what does it matter what I think? Anyone should use the terminology they're comfortable with, so long as the words are approprite to the surroundings. To stop people from saying words I don't want to hear (sphincter? Ugly word) impedes on that whole freedom of speech thing, and is uneccessary and ludicrous to boot.
Call it a pussy, twat, cunt, vulva, kitten, banana portal, it's still the same amazing thing. A rose by any other name.
