'Ofcom swears at the general public for five days during obscenity survey' -
<https://www.theregister.com/2021/09/22/ofcom_swear_word_survey/> :

"As a result of these deliberations, Ofcom was able to create a detailed 
list of the relative offensiveness of all 186 words...

"The result is a guide to profanity which will be hugely useful to any 
writer, or anyone in general who just fancies swearing a bit more 
creatively....

"But the survey did single out c**t (vulgar slang referring to a woman's 
genitals [qui ne le savait pas ?]) and motherfucker as the two 
universally recognised most offensive words on the list, despite an 
acknowledgement that the former had the capacity, particularly in 
Scotland, to be used 'colloquially as an affectionate or endearing term, 
such as calling someone a "clever c**t".'"

Pour ceux qui veulent en savoir plus, ou bien mémoriser la liste :
