If there's no such thing as normal, would it be out of line to say that all adjectives are relative? And would it be out of line to say that most labels we teens like use to create barriers are also relative?
The word that comes to mind: Bitch.
It has so many connotations. My friend Devin calls me "Bitch" at least once a day, but he doesn't mean it - he calls me that when we're "arguing." I call my best friend a "manipulative bitch" because it's one of our favorite House/Wilson quotes from House MD. Bitches are female canines. There are a couple people that come to mind when I think of this over-used cuss word.
I try - and excel - at putting myself in other people's shoes. So, even the people I consider to be bitches probably aren't really bitches to everyone.
Makes it hard to dislike people, doesn't it?
(It does.)

Bitch isn't so much a cuss anymore as it is a catchall term for... anything, actually. Your enemy, your infuriating friend, your dog, another word for complaining, etc...
ReplyDeletePeople tend to talk about Bitch's son, too. Especially when they get hurt or when things have reached a particularly high level of suck.
And then there's the Beyotch. Apparently it's nicer to say, but it also implies you don't have the guts to say the real swear. lol. So many insults, I love it <3
