>Step foot

The term is "set foot".

I really don't understand how "step foot" caught on, as it doesn't make much sense.

It's like the grammatical equivalent of misheard lyrics.

There's that song that goes:
"Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night!"

For the longest time I thought he was singing
your mother's cunt smells like tangerines

I've never heard of either of those terms.

I'm always annoyed by "should of" or "could of" instead of "could/should have" or "use to" instead of "used to"

Step foot makes more sense than set which sounds like you are placing a separate item somewhere. Step foot may be a pleonasm but it helps reinforce the significance of the action. These mishearings are often known as mondegreens.

When the writer refers to a woman's vagina as "her sex".

Quit being such a pussy and call it her vagina, you cunt.

I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

That doesn't sound like "your mother's cunt smells like tangerines" at all, OP.

Personally, I think the word "cooter" is woefully underutilized in literature.

I've actually seen this used for both male and female genitals.

"Step foot" isn't a grammatical problem.

I'm a descriptivist, so these things don't rankle me. Not that I condone all usage and syntax, just that I don't care. People saying "pleb" and "patrician" and using canned phrases and patterns bugs me sometimes. Certain essay frameworks bug me.

>you cunt.
(this name, which I always used, is, I think, byt far the loveliest of names for the vagina).

True, it's the Latin name, also used in Spanish and French.

Vagina is such an ugly word, though.

Pretty sure I read almost exactly that in a book by Bataille
