Vulgar register

In formal situations, the word “Wichser” (wanker) is completely out of place.
Context clue
Whether “Wichser” (wanker) is meant literally or as a general insult can be recognized from the context: sexual behavior points to the literal meaning, while an argument or aggressive action points to the insult.
