Motherfucker (also existing in countless contracted forms e.g. mofo, muthafucka, ma fucker, or shortened to just "mother") is a common insult and profanity in American English and in other varieties of the English language. The term, widely viewed as an obscenity, enjoys a wide usage through varying connotations.

It can be used

* As an explicit profanity: "Motherfucker! My Almond Joy has been burgled!"
* In a neutral fashion: "I'm throwing a mad party all up in this motherfucker."
* Or positively, for example: "Johnny, you are one smart motherfucker."
* Or negatively: "Billy, you are one stupid motherfucker.'"
* Or as an infix "You's a motherfuckin bitch!"
* Or as gibberish "I have one motherfucker, and I'm gonna use it"
* Or as expression of joy "I am motherfuckin happy right now!"

The term can also be combined with the word "bad" to mean a man who is physically threatening, or involved in other dangerous activities. For example: "The Special Forces are some badass motherfuckers."

The term can also be used as a participle. For example: "I'm going to kill you motherfucking Pirate protectors."

In the 1960s and 1970s, the initials M.F. became a common, less explicit substitute for the term.

It is also another way to say bitch, meaning a "difficult situation". For example: "This physics problem is a real motherfucker."

On the other hand, common is the usage "(positive or negative adjective) as a motherfucker," but not "(adjective) as a bitch." This adjective can be positive or negative, e.g., "broke/rich as a motherfucker," but is usually adverse, "It's cold as a motherfucker out there."

Despite these use variations, the word's literal meaning is a pejorative: denoting that the subject engages in sexual intercourse with his or her mother. Because of this, it is most commonly used as a personal insult. Its literal meaning has diminished, however, and the word is commonly used as a general insult to describe a person with poor character rather than a true accusation of incest.

Many consider "Motherfucker" to be one of the most offensive profanities in the English language. A study published in 2000 found that British people consider it second only to "cunt" in severity.
