That's all it means?

 

How disappointing. The word had potential:geek:

Just because it was derived from a weasel-like creature doesn't mean that's the whole connotation it carries... 'bitch' is technically just a female dog, too. ;s

Indeed, the most profane or insulting of all words, in many languages, turn out to be words referring to certain depricated animals.

Remember to combine a "private body part" term to the depricated animal for optimal effect. ^_^

True, but "bitch" implies a total devalution of a person (in this case, a woman in particular) to the general value of a dog.

 

Calling someone a "weasel" doesn't carry the same negative connotations in US and/or Western culture, and since this is a story being read by people in and/or influenced by US and/or Western culture, it loses it's edge to refer to a weasel like creature without the implication that it refers to it in such a way as be of similarly insulting value as the word mentioned above.

 

This is Lucas here, so I doubt that is the case.

Calling a guy a "weasel" is probably worse than calling a chick a "bitch". :ph34r:

I don't see why you reach that conclusion. You can call someone a weasel on a kids show, but "bitch" is considered a curse word. The latter is considered inherently vulgar, while the latter is not. They aren't in the same leage, as far as explitives go.

More vulgar? Yes, technically. More humiliating on the other hand? No way. :ph34r:

That's just because vulgar words have become common place enough that they really aren't that impressive anymore. No one uses "weasel" anymore. In all reality, to shock people, you have to use explitives so horrific that they cause the victim's ears to bleed.
