The field of f*cks was far from barren in 2016. In fact, just shy of a billion f*cks were given across social media the news this year.
It was, for lack of a better phrase, a very shitty year. For a start, most of the awesome people died. Things continued to go from bad to worse in Syria. Zika spread across the Americas. And Britain did the stupidest thing a country has done in a long, long time only for America to go ahead and top it.
Women were significantly more sweary on social, with 58% of posts mentioning f*ck coming from a woman. This is possibly due to the whole vagina grabbing leader of the free world thing.
Note — gender data is estimated based on their name, bio or what they tweet about.
‘Index’ in the above graph is a metric which is corrected for the overall number of men and women in the data pool (i.e. even when corrected for an uneven number of men and women, women remain the sweariest sex).
