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.

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

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

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
