==Use proudly==
* [[Douche]], douchebag, douchenozzle, etc. - douches are unnecessary tools of the patriarchy
* Cockbiter - instead of cocksucker (or sucking references in general like "that sucks"), which makes the act of giving a blow job shameful. It's worth noting that the swear word is popularized by the web series ''Red vs. Blue'', which has many of the same problems as ''South Park''.
==Try to avoid==
==Don't use==
Unless you're making fun of people who use these words in a sexist way...
* Bitch
* Slut
* Bugger (homophobic)
* Credible death threats (illegal in most areas)
* Slander or libel (unless you're okay with the risks)
==Being reclaimed==
Reclaiming is done by people who are in the group who are disparaged by the word. If you aren't in the group, it's best to refrain from using it. If you are in the group, use your own best judgment but be aware that continued disparaging use will slow the progress of reclaiming.
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cunt:_A_Declaration_of_Independence Cunt] - worth noting that it is being reclaimed as a term to describe one's genitals, not as a description of a person.
* Queer - there is discussion in various communities, as some people have enough trauma associated with it to not want to hear it again, even from in-community.
* Loaded racial terms
* Fat (body-shaming isn't feminist)
* Crazy (mental illness has all sorts of stigma attached)
==Open for discussion==
