** SeparatedByACommonLanguage: Uses the word '''[[CountryMatters cunt]]''' a lot and they're from England, so this fuels much of their accusations of misogyny. Of course, in some cases, that's their express intent...

'''It's a simple pothole to the word cunt, but I feel like the example as a whole fits here, given that there's a comparison between England and other territories.'''



** (1/2) CountryMatters: Sage has used this epithet in a number of reviews, particularly ''Anime/AngelCop,'' ''Manga/LoveHina'', ''Virgin Fleet'', and ''Very Private Lesson'', and it's his summation of [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Asuka Soryu]] and [[Manga/VenusWars Susan Sommers]]. '''However, he has said that he wants to cut down on gendered profanity like this, because he knows how much it can offend the female members of his audience.'''

** (1/2) Even the word '''"[[CountryMatters cunt]]"''' alone doesn't justify an 18, as both ''Film/KickAss'' and ''Shaun of the Dead'' feature the word and only get a 15 (mentioned by Creator/SimonPegg on the commentary who bemoaned "15 rating horror" and then got one).

Because there are so many wicks of this trope on the same pages, certain examples have been divided into different folders. Additionally, as the percentages are calculated based on individual examples, we connot expect that the results precisely sum up to 100%.

CountryMatters is... something. The trope seems to be about how the word "cunt" '''and''' how severe the word can be depending on the country (Eg. more acceptable in the UK than US) and culture (Eg. unacceptable if used against a woman). However, given the possibly unclear description, the trope might just be about the word "cunt" being said, which is Administrivia/PeopleSitOnChairs on its own.

The trope name CountryMatters might be a pun on that term from ''Hamlet'', which is already a pun. CountryMatters could be read as "this country views this matter (the word "cunt") in a different way", which seems to support what most of the description rambles about. However, given that most people only recognize "Country Matters" as simply a dirty pun on the word "cunt", this has resulted in very scattered examples, [[Administrivia/TropeNamerSyndrome making, what I think is, a punny pun title fall flat]].
