"Bitchcakes. I'm trying to create a catch phrase."

100 imaginary points to whomever can name that reference.

I use it with my wife as an odd form of complement. If I say "that woman's a bitch" what I am saying is that she is pretty and thin and thus women can hate her. Or I will use it in anger when talking about a man who is acting like less than a man. True it is misogynistic and I feel bad about this. So I do try to keep it away from usage in anger. Of course if it's for a punch line then I will use it with out hesitation or guilt. Funny's funny.

I use it in all manners. I will however use it towards a man if I think it will get him riled up if thats my intent.

i use that word all the time.

I am comfortable with the word but do not use it all the time

I pretty much only use it when I'm extremely upset at another female.

I absolutely despise that word and hate when it's used to describe me or anyone else. First of all, I am not a female dog. Second, I find nothing about the word "empowering" at all. If someone were to call me a name, or I call them, I much prefer "whore" or "cunt". Actually, I quite like the word "cunt" and I think it's rather lovely.

But I completely HATE the word "bitch". Ever since I was VERY young, my mother would put me down with the phrase "you little bitch". Constantly. She still says it to this today... not in connection to me, but whenever she gets pissed about something. Every time I hear that word, I want to bash the sayer in the face and knock their teeth down their throat (I think it's obvious to say that I have mother issues). I will not allow anyone to call me "bitch" for any reason (even in jest)... if they do, trust me, it stops right then and there.

I use it all the time but I never actually get mad an call a girl a bitch

I know that I can be a bitch, and I usually know when I am being one. My BF is NOT allowed to call me that, even sexy bitch I'm not fond of. I sometimes do refer to my gal pals as 'my bitches'. I will also use it to refer to women who to a t fit the term. I will also use it as a verb. I am of the feeling that words only have power if we choose to give it power, and they are always in context. Many people have a hard time interpreting context, so that is where I feel much confusion comes in. Sometimes people will use words just to sound cool, without realizing what context they are using the word.

I think it depends on how it is going to be used.

As a whole, I avoid curse words that have a literal meaning of something that I don't consider to be an insulting thing to be compared to: genitals, sex acts, and of course women! There are just so many things in this world that are actually deserving of becoming insults, why would I turn to something that has been used to degrade my gender (and men for behaving as my gender is perceived to be)?

I can get behind women reclaiming it and using it as a term of endearment or "yeah I'm a bitch, so what?" although I don't personally choose to do so.

It's just a word. I use it mostly with my guy friends, those gay bitches haha

Back in the old days I called myself "Elizabitch" because I've always known I was one. lol.

I do use the word bitch quite a lot, unfortunately.

I cuss like a sailor, so I say bitch a lot without a second thought.

I find it is how you use words. Not the word itself.

I'm comfortable with the word, and use it where it is needed.

I say it and don't care

i use it when it's called for, not unnecessarily

Hell my husband is the kitchen bitch. Bitch is somewhat a term of endearment for us to use for each other. And yes when a male or female pisses me off I will call them a bitch if it is called for.

I use it sometimes, but I am not a fan of political correctness, and am very critical of a lot of feminist theory. I don't believe in censoring people or taking offense at every little thing--life is too short to be offended all the time. I've been called worse things than a bitch, and I have ceased to care. Call me whatever you want; I know my own self-worth.

I also believe in treating other people with respect, and I don't like using words to attempt to hurt others. I can count on my fingers the times I've angrily called someone a bitch--and I was REALLY ANGRY when I did. Out of respect for other people, I don't throw the word around like it's nothing.

Also since I've reclaimed MY sexuality from the contradictory influences of societal expectations and feminist thought, I have found that words like "bitch," "slut," and "whore" can be empowering in the right context, and because of that, it's taken the teeth out of those words. I use it myself when it seems appropriate--self censorship does a lot more damage than any word could ever do.

Sometimes use it

I've never liked the word. Even though people use it in a joking way, I ask them not to call me that.

I'm comfortable with it...I only use it when I'm upset with someone, man or woman.

I have years ago during a heated argument.
I regret saying it then and have not said it in that way again. Nor do I say it in a joking way either. It is not that I don't use vulgar language, I do with relish. I simply don't use that kind of word.
