I was about 16, I think. My parents didn't curse around me until I was about 18-19, even though I'd pretty much gotten the (correct) impression that my mother had a filthy mouth much earlier.

Probably not until I was 12. I didn't know what it meant.

I very clearly remember deciding to say it in a conversation when I was 11.

Age 6. My friends were debating as to whether the correct spelling was "fuk" or "fuck", so I asked my mom.

further to my accidental discovery of the word aged 7, I probably didn't use it again until a conspiratorial "lol rude words" conversation with schoolfriends aged about 10, and didn't attempt to insert it nonchalantly into a sentence until I was 12 or so and trying to sound tough (at school, again)
it probably didn't slip out unplanned until at least 18, but now I have a bad habit of muttering it if things go even mildly wrong, or occasionally if I'm on my own and have just randomly been struck by the memory of something stupid or embarrassing from a decade ago
was rather naive re: cunt, however; probably didn't even know this was a word until well into my teens. remember reading magazine interviews aged 13-14 and being confused as to why they'd starred "c***" out cz neither "crap" nor "cock" made sense or seemed worth starring

called my lil brother a cunt when i was nine, it was just another word i'd learned off the headmaster's son tbh. He told on me, i got destroyed.
