A Dude Calling a Woman a Bitch?
Is Calling a Woman a Bitch Acceptable in Social Circles
Using the term is generally considered disrespectful and unacceptable regardless of social circles. It can harm relationships and perpetuate negative stereotypes. Respectful communication is essential, especially when discussing others. Understanding boundaries and respecting personal dignity is crucial in any social setting.

Not acceptable
To me
Seems to be used a lot in the US, not so much where I am ....
Personally I would never say it to someone irl in their face, because that is rude. But I might describe someone like that based on their actions if it fits.. Which is pretty rare tbh.
What made it unacceptable in the old school?
Old school knows how to respect a woman 😄
Not in a joking way. Acceptable / Not Acceptable. I'm 36 and kinda old school and raised "old school," so it makes me skeeve when I hear it, but if def seems to be acceptable in some social circles.
I am immune to insults. Who cares what I am called...I don’t become that just because someone called me that!
What made it unacceptable in the old school?
Because it's gendered. Anyone can be an asshole. In the old school, only a woman was a bitch.
so it's singling her out for being a woman?
It's singling her out for being a woman with an opinion, most often.

Why are you asking them if you ARE an old school?
And you forgetting that ‘old school’ as modern society also had upper and lower classes. In lower classes it was very acceptable to humiliate a woman verbally AND physically...
So...your question is kind of like a fart in public place...

Well do you see any 50’s movies calling women bitches? They just didn’t do that.
My husband and I both hate that word, it's absolutely disrespectful to all women, I don't care how much of a little shitlord one particular woman is being.
Weirdly enough "cunt" doesn't bother me as much...spent too much time in Australia lol.

I feel the same way. I just associate it with the lowest of low. When I hear that word, and because of the meaning, I just think of a woman on all fours acting like a wild animal- And not in a good way lol
I hate that word.

I think calling a dude a bitch is super effective. It's way worse than calling a woman an asshole. Your making disparaging remarks at his masculinity... calling him a whiny crybaby who's maybe also on their period? Which is never acceptable for a man to be. Growing up, I always assumed asshole was gendered to men.

I like the term Poosey lol I think it's the equivalent of bitch for a women lol

Well, I have never seen my father say that to my mom either 😄
Bitch, cunt, hag, heffer, slut, whore, etc...
All words that are meant to incite a reaction from women, but none of them affect me in the least. I stopped giving words of other people, power over me and my emotions, a long long time ago.

Who is okay with being name called? It's a form of abuse
It depends on the contex.
Someone could say "And then that crazy bitch started throwing my stuff out the window!" That imo is acceptable. That woman would in fact be a crazy bitch.
But if someone said "Man, I really needs to get out an find me sum bitches." Thats pretty much calling all women bitches, or categorizing them as objects, which is not acceptable.

There are worse things in this world, than names. I have learned, personally. So words, aren't something that affect me on any level. They don't demean me. They don't have power over my self esteem. And the people that use those words to me, or women, I don't respect myself.

TBH, I think its kinda acceptabe to women because of all of these reality shows. "Bad Girls Club," Jersey Shore and all that other crap. My sister's think its acceptable. I kinda get it because its the world we live in.

They want equality, they'll get equality. If you're being selective about it, might as well axe the whole movement & go back to the "pants are for men, skirts are for women" shtick.
I prefer to treat people on a personal merit basis, in the interest of fairness.
Those who are good to me will receive nothing but courtesy from me. If you wanna give me shit (especially for no reason), you forfeit your right to be treated with courtesy, and you only got yourself to blame for whatever happens next. Life is too short to mince words.
I'm an equal opportunity treater. Gender means nothing to me.
PS: why is this even up for debate? If whoever has a problem with being called a bitch, maybe she shouldn't act like one in the first place.

I have 19 year old sister who got into an argument with her dude. He sent her an angry text with included, 'you fuckin' bitch." Shit made her upset, which in turn triggered me. She thinks its the norm and I'm just the old dude.

Well, that's clearly abusive behavior and would be if he'd used another word "you fucking dummy" "you fucking asshole" "you fucking cocksucker". I see why she was upset and you mad. As for "bitch" in particular, I'm old too. lol

Me too. lol. I might just have to accept that things are different. She gone do what she want either way really
I’ve been called a bitch by guys when I no longer wanted to continue dating them. Just confirms what dickheads they are. Thanks for confirming I’ve made the right decision 💅

Oh that makes sense. The only negative impact in my life is dxp lol I never made time for tv shows or social media. .
Yeah you are right-- it boils down to the world we live in, esp our immediate circle of influence.
Are you the eldest? I'm the youngest and I know my brother would be disappointed if i were to use a certain language!

This is the type of language that will get worse with time, not better. I judge a man by how he tallks to women, and this type of demeaning behavior only gets worse, unfortunately.
When I was with my ex, he always called me his wife, while his other friends called their wives bitches. So his friends would say Where's your wife to him, when asking about me but he would ask where's your bitch to them.
Such an odd way to talk -_-

he is being abusive and if she doesn't stand up for herself being demeaned that way now, he will do it again. he will do it a thousand times because the longer time passes that he isn't corrected, the more respect he loses. he deserves to get popped in the mouth. disrespectful as hell. shit.

Right, I was curious to know where we get our morals from.
Like I can say back in the day we were slaves, but they let us wear real nice suits when the guests came over to serve them dinner though.
But kids nowadays don't wear suits, what is the world coming to.
Itt'd just be ideal if a person was motivated to respect people of their own will, more than following arbitrary rules of right and wrong.

Well usually parents teach us morals when we are young or they try to. churches, schools etc. Society has changed so that has impacted morals in my view as well as what some might feel is right or wrong, it has never really been up to own free will if you really think about it. My morals aren't going to be the same as yours.. so who is right, who is wrong.
also who sets what a moral even is, and which are good or bad.
