There are some women through their attitude or actions warrant the title of the "B" word.
It used to be calling a guy a "dog" was enough of an insult to start something but now calling someone a "dawg" isn't such a bad thing.
There are all types of curse words that guys use on other guys and they usually come after the "F" word.
I don't think there is a male equivalent to the "B" word but call some guys a "poodle" and them are fightin words!
I understand your point..but, to me, both words indicate a lack of respect for half the population who are female. It's crude, angry and unnecessary.
I agree with this poster.
The origins, though, are even more mind-boggling- while people might assume it's yet another part of the "ghetto culture" spreading, it became popular in the "radical feminists" circle ages ago. The book that's called the feminist 'bible' even has it as its title.

That IS very interesting...I wonder, though, if a woman (feminist or not) calling another female the B words differs significantly from a male calling a woman the same word? Much the same as in the Black culture, one Black might use the N word with another Black, yet when a non-Black uses the N word, it's likely to be viewed as a slur and a perjorative...
This is set up to be too conversational in tone, as opposed a debate. Plus, and this is always a problem with threads that have profanity as part of their topic, it is against the TOS to use that kind of potentially offensive language, including altered forms of it. Basically, if you have to alter a word to get it past our filters it isn't allowed to be used. Contact me OP, by DM, if you still want to present this topic and we will figure out how it can be done and still remain within the guidelines.
