Morphology
The phrase combines the offensive noun 'cunt' with 'dropping' (to drop into conversation), yielding the straightforward meaning 'the act of using that word in speech'. This follows a common, productive English pattern (e.g. 'f‑bomb dropping', 'name‑dropping'), so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would likely infer the meaning.
Etymology
Cunt dropping may come from the picture of the heavy word cunt and the action dropping, like a stone falling into a quiet room and shocking everyone. That's why it means using this very offensive word in public or 'to insult' women.
