I don’t know. If it’s in a derogatory context definitely. Like “you’re such a bitch.” But I call people bitch all the time but it’s got an inflection on the I and it sounds more like an e. Like beeech. And my boyfriend will mimic me sometimes or use it in an appropriate context. I don’t think that’s wrong.
If it was girls or a gay couple then I see it as a reclaiming thing and is fine in that type of inflection. I get what ur saying like the "bitch please" tone but I don't EVER want a man to feel comfortable calling me a derogatory term even if he doesn't mean it maliciously he shouldn't feel comfortable using that word to me even in that way
Idk man we can agree to disagree but I think it IS most definitely that serious at the end of the day. It's a slippery slope. First you are comfortable calling women bitches then you're comfortable making sexist jokes and so on and so forth until it's completely gotten a at from you and I say this especially for men that have never experienced this type of systemic oppression. They simply don't get why it's that serious either thus the slippery slope because "it's not a big deal" or "it's
just a joke". And I'm glad you know your worth but I don't think that can take the place of caring about the respect you are shown from the people you surround yourself with. Even if they don't mean it disrespectfully, the word inherently is disrespectful. Again tho I get what ur saying and understand having to pick ur battles but i personally do think it's that deep. And as a woman allowing that is enabling that slippery slope for them. That's just my point of view tho
I get what you’re saying. Still isn’t that serious for me. If it ever was, my friends would take full accountability. And it’s really not a pick your battles situation for me cause I don’t take offense. If I’m actually being a bitch and I get called a bitch I don’t find any harm in that lmao. To each their own.
