One of the "leaving murals" on the school wall painted by our 8th graders has the word crap in it. I was kind of surprised.

In this country it depends on who is saying it to whom (it could be exchanged between friends I guess, like the n word)
If I heard a child say it in school they would go straight to the Headmaster. And if I heard a parent saying it in front of a child I would wince. It's worse than bastard as well as having misogynistic overtones.

I wonder if that's regional? We used it all the time to describe people who were mean (mostly female, but not always) or as a verb to mean complaining "Quit yer bitchin'"
