Yo, I love flip phones, think that it just looks so cunty,I’m looking for a modern flip/clamshell phone with a physical keypad, and I’m trying to find even the most obscure models worldwide. Quirky designs, with quirky color combinations are also lovely. Retro tech is the best. My ideal phone would have 5G, full Android + Google Play, 128GB minimum (256GB preferred), a modern chipset/RAM, USB-C, good cameras/battery, and a 4"+ main/inter, maybe a flashlight would also be great… I want to dig as obscure as possible, across Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, India, Southeast Asia, Europe, Africa, Middle East, Latin America, basically anywhere — including tiny local brands, ODMs, discontinued models, prototypes/leaks, and upcoming 2026–2027 phones.i’d also want it to run apps and websites as well, lowkey kinda like a smart phone.

      Nope. Cunty is a positive term. It’s like serving cunt. It’s akin to being a bad bitch.

      Essentially, unabashedly assertive, bold, potentially feminine, but I’ve seen it used otherwise too.

        Well that doesn’t seem to have made it to my part of the UK (though I don’t regularly talk to anyone younger than about 26) where the most common usage is “cunty behaviour”, i.e. being a bit of a dickhead

        Is this a recent development where you’re from? Or am I just not in the right circles to have hit this one yet

      The word can have different meanings and connotations depending on where you are (avoid using entirely in the US, but its fine in Australia or Scotland).

        connotations maybe, but I’m pretty sure cunt is (vulgarity or insult intended or not) a slangy word meaning “vagina” everywhere it is used.

        and even in places like Australia its still not a complement unless you’re close to someone and then its like a friendly jab, which I’d still consider a mild, if playful insult. Ya cunt :D

          And even then, it depends on the location and the generation. Australia is a very large (by land mass) country with pretty distinct regional cultures, not everyone speaks like a bogan or thinks bogan language is funny.

        Depends who you’re talking to in Scotland

        Say it to an old lady and you’ll get battered with whatever the nearest hard object is

          True, but it still doesn’t have the connotation it does in the US where it’s a straight up unacceptable in any general context.

        In the US in queer and drag circles you might hear it used like that but yeah I probably wouldn’t be tossing it out in public.

        Hey, many of us in England enjoy its use too, not just our Cunty Cousins to the north.

      I used that word as in the context of having an unique style, certainly with positive resonance. It is widely used on the internet at least now as a synonym/slang for charismatic/striking or to describe one’s appealing nature. Nonetheless, my impression suggests that, it could be harmful or offensively perceived. Despite this, I apologize if it hurt your sentiments❤️
