Slang Gunt

Why is the English Slang Gunt constantly removed? I created a Gunt (river) and a disamgiguation for both. It is a slang word however vulgar and deserves a place on this site! <--- I agree with this just because someone is so upset about a word dosent mean you can just remove it from society. Wither you like it or not Wikipedia is our modern library and is how humans in 200-300 years will learn. Just because your little pink haired feelings got hurt dosent mean your gonna delete history.

Wikipedia is not Urban Dictionary and, until the word becomes common currency, it does not belong here. Vulgarity is not the issue - there is an entry for Cunt because that is a commonly used word. Constantly re-adding the neologism Gunt is bordering on vandalism. Dlyons493 Talk 15:25, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I heard it on Howard Stern. If the King of All Media is using it, then i'd say the word has madee it's way into the common language of the culture. I actually came to this page looking for the slang term, but only found this stuff about a river.--Glaze 04:42, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gunt certainly belongs here.

Wiki has listings for Donkey Punch, Dirty Sanchez etc, I have heard the term Gunt used on national radio to describe a flap of fat hanging down near a womans vagina. Gut + cunt = gunt. IT should be a part of the encylopedia

You can't dispute popular culture uses of gunt.

I agree with the previous posts, regarding the constant removal of the slang term "gunt". While you may find it offensive or vulgar, like it or not, "gunt" is a term used in popular culture in reference to a fat woman's gut and cunt running together into one highly unusual body part.

Like most offensive or vulgar words, they start in the popular culture and end up in the dictionary. Such words as: cracker, wop, kike, kraut, homeboy, oreo and porch monkey. There is also a profusion of words out there that are not offensive, yet started in the popular culture, and again, are now recognized in the dictionary. Such words as: hacker, wedgie, blog, cargo pants, unibrow, drama queen, empty suit, himbo, couch potato, google, xerox, numbskull, bling bling, biodiesel and ringtone. Go ahead and look them up in the dictionary (m-w.com) or even on wikipedia.com. You will find that almost all of these words, offensive, vulgar, or not, are found on BOTH sites.

All of these words have slang origins in popular culture long before any dictionary recognized them. It's not like the dictionary listed these terms and someone had to invent a definition for them rather, someone had a definition and invented a term for it, that the dictionary eventually recognized. It's not my fault, this is just how popular culture works.

A strong argument can be postulated that popular culture is the preeminent authority when it comes to the English language. This can be evidenced by reading the last paragraph of the "Vocabulary" section of the article on the English Language, where it currently states:

English is noted for the vast size of its active vocabulary and its fluidity. English easily accepts
technical terms into common usage and imports new words and phrases that often come into common usage. Examples of this phenomenon include: cookie, Internet and URL (technical terms), as well as genre, über, lingua franca and amigo (imported words/phrases, from French, German, modern Latin, and Spanish, respectively). In addition, slang often provides new meanings for old words and phrases. In fact, this fluidity is so pronounced that a distinction often needs to be made between formal forms of English and contemporary usage. See also:

sociolinguistics.

Please also refer to wikipedia regarding such slang terms as cameltoe, dirty sanchez, cleveland steamer, Brown Sahib, Sambo, Cheese-eating surrender monkeys, and glory hole. All are examples of existant terms (which explains why they are referenced on Wikipedia), but are not yet recognized in the dictionary.

So, if you don't know what you're talking about and you either can't, or refuse to support your position, then please, don't revert other peoples' posts.

P.S. - I am a Professor of Linguistics and Modern English and the Princeton University, as well as being a distinguished member of Sigma Tau Delta, Northeast Chapter. So, please, don't argue with me, - I know what I am talking about. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wtf2ed (talk • contribs) 20:38, 4 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

This Page Needs to be Split.

The argument about whether the slang term Gunt deserves to be on Wikipedia is irrelevant here. This page needs to be split to have a separate page for Gunt the river and Gunt the slang term with a disambiguation page to differentiate the two pages. Any arguments pertaining to the appropriateness of any article can be carried out on that pages discussion page, or opted for speedy deletion.I may do this at a later date, but if anyone feels so inclined to do this now please proceed.
