Is the word "puta" mainstream in the USA? - GoFuckYourself.com

fuzebox · 09-01-2009, 09:11 AM

I was considering starting a latina site but using the word "puta" in the domain instead of "latina"...

A lot of people are telling me that "puta" sounds weird and a lot of people won't know what it is. I guess living in a latin country I'm bias and I forget exactly what is common language and what is not.

Thoughts?

People in California, New Mexico and Florida will probably get it but I don't think you'll be attracting many members from, say, Alabama or Arkansas

bloggingseo · 09-01-2009, 09:15 AM

Pretty much everyone in Texas knows what a puta is.

Vendzilla · 09-01-2009, 09:16 AM

Good name for a whore house!

Yo Adrian · 09-01-2009, 09:18 AM

would work great for a site translated into spanish, because I doubt most of the country is used to hearing that

starpimps · 09-01-2009, 09:18 AM

fuzebox is a puta

that term isnt really common with the folk around where i live

MaDalton · 09-01-2009, 09:30 AM

i understand it as an insult - like whore - correct?

Correct, it will be a niche paysite starring latin girls, I am hoping that nichelatinas.com is interchangeable with nicheputas.com

Varius · 09-01-2009, 09:38 AM

My opinion as given to ya on ICQ is go with the putas one.

Neither one will garner much SE or type-ins, so that's a moot point.

The putas one rolls off the tongue easier, is more brandable and may even attract "curious clicks" where people who don't know what a puta is click to find out.

todhunter · 09-01-2009, 09:38 AM

I wouldn't. Learning curve is too high.

Not impossible -- "Amazon" didn't used to be associated with books -- but not sure it's worth the try.

viki · 09-01-2009, 09:39 AM

i think people may know it as a word, but within a domain it may be even harder to identify depending on what is put before and after it.

potter · 09-01-2009, 09:40 AM

I would say most of the country knows what it is. The regions that don't are going to be the ones isolated from civilization. In states like Nebraska, not around the big cities - out in the smaller no name towns.

TubeTitans_SusieQ · 09-01-2009, 09:41 AM

never heard of it but interesting...

czarina · 09-01-2009, 09:43 AM

in areas with lots of latins everybody knows what puta means, but ask someone in Kentucky or Iowa and they'll have no idea.

kowalsky · 09-01-2009, 09:44 AM

puta de mierda!

So like, the ones who sign up for porn paysites?

pornocruto · 09-01-2009, 09:46 AM

It reminds me of "pooter"

Webmistress - Doreen · 09-01-2009, 10:07 AM

puta in Tagalog means whore/bitch

themadwriter · 09-01-2009, 10:14 AM

sounds good to me

boneless · 09-01-2009, 10:21 AM

puta madre

where im from (netherlands) only a few know what it means, but over here in Spain its a common word ;)

RayBonga · 09-01-2009, 10:31 AM

you'll probably get more portuguese speaking traffic than spanish/US.

people in Brazil will do searches or have porn with puta or putinha in the title but in spanish you use it more (even if the literal translation is still whore/prostitute), spanish people will use puta madre, etc. in informal non sexual contexts all the time

GrouchyAdmin · 09-01-2009, 10:31 AM

It's pretty common, but I'm in Mexiville/Methville.

tonyparra · 09-01-2009, 10:38 AM

i think bad idea but who the fuck am i lol

It's "PUTO" male tense, remember spanish has female and male versions of a word.

Puto translates to gigolo.

Thoughts?

I can take your traffic with the word puta all day long. I have a home for it hit me up.

cherrylula · 09-27-2011, 11:14 AM

from So Cal... yep know the word quite well lol

I think it would work.

ajrocks · 09-27-2011, 01:34 PM

Is that like can I puta cock in your ass?

epitome · 09-27-2011, 01:39 PM

There are people like me that always thought it was punta, so don't expect as many type-ins if they try to remember the site name.

Hell I used to be the only white guy in a Hispanic neighborhood and never knew better until this thread.

harvey · 09-27-2011, 01:42 PM

to be honest, every time I see the word whore or puta I lose interest. Why would I bother in seeing a cheap whore? I'd rather see hot girls, but maybe that's just me

slapass · 09-27-2011, 01:44 PM

MN people would have no idea.

Sunny Day · 09-27-2011, 01:58 PM

1st time I heard of the restaurant chain Chi-Chi's, I had no clue. It was a year are two before someone told me what it meant.

scouser · 09-27-2011, 02:09 PM

no idea what it means

Deej · 09-27-2011, 02:11 PM

pinocha!

BlackCrayon · 09-27-2011, 02:32 PM

I knew there's no-one cuter, then she said she was a puta
I said "What does puta mean?" Hmm and so she told me...

SexSearchSuzanne · 09-27-2011, 02:41 PM

I don't think most Canadians would know what it means, but if they are from or into that culture they might. It might work out for you for keyword ranking on "puta" versus the more common terms.

SpicyM · 09-27-2011, 03:06 PM

Argos88 · 09-27-2011, 03:36 PM

Most US people (non-latin) know what Hijo de Puta means... I can definitely say this as a fact, because every time I lose in some online game to US guys I say Hijo de Puta and they understand what I say, hehehe... even some non-latin European understand it.
