bitch is a slur. doesn't matter who's saying it to who. it's not as bad as the slurs ppl typically reference when calling something a slur but it is one already

Start using “dick” as a slur against men. At least things are more even that way.

Girls can call girls ‘bitch’ playfully, gay guys can too—but straight guys? Never.

Agreed. It’s not on par with other slurs (like it’s not as bad in meaning and origin) however it’s still a slur

Only ever used to describe women, or when comparing men to women in a disrespectful way

cuz it’s not just a swear word it’s a slur, and slurs are almost always worse than a generic “shit”

well yeah i agree that it’s a slur. but it’s not yet widely accepted as that, especially not 20 years ago when they were being raised

reclaiming a slur is actually extremely relevant and supports the point that it is a slur

You can literally replace it with asshole, so easy

when you use it towards a woman, it usually means she’s being sensitive, angry, or mean. when you use it towards a man, it’s usually in a way meaning weak or whiny

Same!! I think it’s fine when women use it affectionately with each other. Reclaim it!! I just hate when men say it.

Can you explain what calling someone that conveys that calling someone something else doesn’t?

It does support that point that it’s a slur, but it also reinforces the subconscious dynamic that categorizes one group as a slur. Double edged sword
