Re: girls hate that word?
Beaucoup -
The reasons for your distaste for the word wanker intrigue me. I'm English too, and I really don't see it as an offensive word. In fact, I don't even know any old people who think of it as especially offensive - surely not a word to be thrown around in the company of the vicar, you understand, but not the sort of word that might rank in a person's top 5 offensive words list. Unless it has some special meaning about which I am unaware, of course.
I had noticed it being used in odd situations on American television though.
