What’s the worse thing someone has called you?

[popupandsayhi]

I was explaining to my adult DD that I was once called a Jezebel by a group of giggling girls. No idea why, I’m not alluring or sexually provocative in any way. Strangely, I felt quite defensive, like I want to snort ‘no I am not’.

Someone also said I was two faced which I thought was ironic as I’m usually told I’m too blunt and honest.

My brother died many years ago now. I was run ragged sorting everything out (he died abroad with no insurance) Eventually found time before the funeral to get my hair cut - I have always had short hair. My mum took one look at me and said "you look like one of those French resistance women who has been caught and punished by the Nazis".

That is superb 🤣

Surely she meant a nazi collaborator caught by the resistance though?

Wow.

My ex husband used to scream in my face that I was a cold hearted fucking bitch. The last time he did it I was mid telling him I wasn’t ever coming back. A useful reminder I was doing the right thing. He’s a sad bastard.

@Damnloginpopup

You're probably correct! She used to say a lot of shit that didn't make sense - or maybe I'm misremembering. You get the gist though.

My sister told me I wasn’t a real mother because I’d had to have a (emergency) c-section and hadn’t given birth naturally!

I spent one NYE being called a c**t, because I’d asked my husband what time he wanted to head out.

We didn’t go out, and he’s now my ex husband.

One of my dd3 horrible little acquaintances called me a coffin dodger once.

dd3 had turned him down when he asked her out after months of him treating her like shit and him being an awful little shite, they were 13 at he time. I thought it was hilarious especially as I’m younger than his own mother

A "four-eyed bitch" back in the days when people were bullied for having to wear glasses.

The Jezebel thing sounds weird. How long ago was it? In what context? Either way it sounds rude.

I've been called a fat cunt, skinny cunt, fucking bitch, slag, blah blah blah. Water off a duck's back when it's coming from either a disturbed stranger or someone who's very hurt or angry in the heat of a moment.

But appearance based insults particularly have no impact on me. It's not like it's ever a supermodel saying it?!

I was called a spiny crevice once and that he hoped my slithy toves. He thought I had cut him up on the M1.

No need for that I thought.

I was once called a po-faced bat in the launderette in Earls Court. My crime? I had put my washing in a dryer without first having put it through the spin dryer. Apparently this was worse than the guy who had walked in off the street with a handful of wet washing and taken one of the other dryers.

A stuck up bitch who thinks I'm better than everyone. By a friend of my mum's who I'd only met a handful of times because she expected to be invited to my wedding and wasn't.

I was called a fish wife by a teacher I respected, I was so offended I wrote her a letter explaining the situation she walked in on and she apologised but that stung when she said it.

Wedding invitations are a whole level of madness in some folk

A liar - by the cunt paediatric consultant that decided to touch me up at my DD’s appointment.
Funny that the judge didn’t agree with him.

@popupandsayhi it was madness! We did invite a few friends of our parents but those were relationships of decades standing who we'd known since we were children.
This woman was the mum of one of my sister's school friends (sister is a decade younger than me so not even like we were at school at the same time, I never knew her daughter), her name literally never came up as even a possibility, was completely gobsmacked that she was so offended at not being included in basically a strangers' wedding.

“It” by a leading academic. “Has it been educated?”

Ex partner used to call me a cunt quite often, he’d also refer to women as split arses 🤮

My best friend was dying and had asked a few of us to sit with her, including her ex husband. We all knew each other very well and he and I had been at school together with my friend. He decided that the time was right to say I had been a slut at school. I made nothing of it which infuriated him, so he repeated it. There was no way I was going to create a drama at that very difficult time which is why he said it I think. After my friend died, he tried to get in touch but I blocked him on everything

Also neighbour when I was a child called me a bastard. Was the late 80’s we were the only broken home in the street. What a witch

"You iz an 'orse!" Roughly translated, "You are a horse!" Told to me by a French boyfriend. I think he meant that I was very generous with my favours. It wasn't a long relationship.

I suppose the inference was that I got ridden a lot.

Never mind. We carry on regardless.

A fat cunt by my partner. I’m a size 10.

A pupil, when I was a primary teacher, was very angry and shouted at me to 'Fuck Off, you old lady'. I can take the fuck off but the old lady comment stung a bit - I wasn't even 50 at the time!😂

Early 90s, two police officers looking for a suspect in a robbery, searching the estate I lived on. I was a teen and me and a couple of other girls were sitting on the steps outside my flat chatting. One of the PCs asked me if I’d seen anyone run past and I replied that I hadn’t (because I hadn’t).

As they walked away the other PC asked his mate ‘what did she say?’ and he said ‘probably a pack of lies…just another little slag and n**er lover like all all of them round here’

I was a streetwise kid and I knew the police weren’t particularly friendly, but I was absolutely stunned at that level of hatred.
