(29,322 posts)Just read a headline this morning but haven't hung around for the debates but whether or not and its not for me to decide -- I know what would happen if I used that word but it isn't something I ever have to worry about as generally I stay away from ad hominem or remind myself when I catch myself doing so but I have rarely ever heard that word personally and something very vicious behind it as "bitch" can be gender neutral or get away with it depending on context and every use depends on the context but the word is exclusively derogatory for someone who is a woman (maybe except the use of the word with British accents but don't know the truth behind the rumor).
That said, being banned I could deal with it but people debating my existence, I would like to hear from NYC Skip. If one truly understands the offensive use, realize the error -- I can accept that or if one stands their ground or give a phony apology (you can't really tell, especially through here, unless there is a pattern or they put the responsibility on someone else or blame someone else unless a clear provoking but a C-word -- I can't see that but not my place to decide here or there. I will say there is a poster here (that I like) that have insulted more people here ever but in just a monthy average, suspended more than once, had an always open transparency page (don't know if it is but enjoyed a laugh). Remember the douchebag thread?
