Why do women call each other "Bitch" , But Gets offended when dude calls them a bitch or "His Bitch" ?

It's about the intention. Like playfully calling your friend dumb VS calling your friend dumb to intentionally hurt them. We might call each other bitch as a joke, or as a playful way to mean friend, really. But if anyone, man or woman, says it to me to cause offense, I'm going to perceive that negatively. Even the playful name calling I'm gonna find a bit off-putting, from men or women, if I'm not close to them. But I'd let a close male friend or boyfriend call me bitch in a playful way, and I'd let me boyfriend call me bitch during sex.

I do not call my friends “bi**h… maybe it’s a cultural thing?🥰

[Mrsposh]

Cultural?

[Chiarac2003]

Who they are an where they grew up. I don't know.

[Mrsposh]

Okay thats true, I've notice in some communities its a very normal thing!
. Thank you 😊

[Chiarac2003]

As with anything, I don't mind my male friends calling me anything as a joke, but if a girl says the same thing to me, I would put more weight on it. The intention is what matters. I can call any male friend an idiot, I would never say that to a girl.

Something I always wanted to know yet to find an answer, same goes with the word Slut they get mad when we use it and ok when they call it each other it

[Mrsposh]

Yes because men can also mean it in a joking or friendly way aswell.

[LimitedBenefits101]

thanks for the mho

It's the same as blacks constantly referring to each other as 'n**" but, as soon as someone not black says it to them, LOOK OUT!!

[Johnagain]

That's what I was going to say. Ditto.

[Mrsposh]

Was that the only example you could have made? 🤔

[FunkyMonkee]

Do you know any others?

[Mrsposh]

I mean there are MANY others, but seems people lack accountability. Every group has situations, but people love to bring up black people as their argument ALL the time. It comes off very ugly. But thank you for your opinion 😊

[FunkyMonkee]

That's why I asked! I couldn't think of any others.

[Mrsposh]

It's all good.😊 It was a good example. I'm just bored of always hearing it lol

Having been a teen and twentysomething myself before it's a double standard in that guys want to impress their friends. If any guy wants to impress his girl or friends become a USAF PJ COMBAT MEDIC ASIDE FROM THAT A US NAVY SEAL IS A CLOSE SECOND LMFAO

[Andres77]

For the same reason as "we can do it but no one else can" used by others.
If it's hurtful then it's hurtful regardless of who uses it.

[Mrsposh]

True

[jahaims]

Language is more nuanced than that. Context, tone, etc matter.

[Mrsposh]

That's true, but I still find it to be a double standard thing

[jahaims]

Life isn't black and white.

[Mrsposh]

Yeah

Whoever reads this and your feelings get hurt because of what I said just know that I really don’t care. Girls be ready to fight a guy for calling you that but stay calling each other that

[TrillXHippy]

On Thursday I had to catch the bus to work. There was a fight at the bus stop lol and well ya know 2 girls were fighting. One of the girls didn’t get on the bus which is understandable. The girl that did get on the bus kept calling the other girl something that guys can’t call a girl. If a girl wants to fight a guy cause of that then she needs to fight a girl. B-b-but it’s how you say it

[lofii]

Because of the mythical "patriarchy"

[Selene_94]

Cause got understand the culture.

[motownplayer2000]

Double standards

[Mrsposh]

So true
