The B-Word: Acceptable or Offensive?

just because a word is defined a way in the dictionary doesnt mean thats wat ppl mean wen they say it

im black and wen i call ppl the n word im not calling them a bum just cause thats wat it means in the dictionary

Clarify that Progidy mean the dance act fronted by Liam Howlett, as Progidy is also the name of a different hiphop artist.

Nevertheless, the derogatory word for a woman can be a strong word in its own right. The word is also outside of my vocabulary, although I suppose phrases such as "life is a bitch", which do not refer to anyone, are okay. The word is otherwise, while 'acceptable' in the Progidy song (and bizarrely I don't find its use in hiphop offensive when heard at home e.g. not in a supermarket). I say "cunt" when with close friends as that is gender neutral; however perhaps the five-letter word is worse.

I tend to think about how it is said. If shouted in actual anger at a woman as part of domestic abuse, is unacceptable. It isn't very impact strong otherwise on me, as a man, unlike other words, such as "fuck", which have traditionally had more power for me in certain circumstances (who is around me at the time etc.)

I can't honestly say I've never used the word. but beleive it or not it was rare. A word can be offensive but is not newsworthy. You need to turn a blind eye to any idiot who'd call a woman a name such as b-tch, who-e, etc... But here's the thing, for the woman in video you can't honestly pick and choose one word in dictionary and you can't "take that word and make it your own".. call me a a--hole... HAHA I don't care really

P.s. I would never use the n word, even if I were of african decent.

fuck all these cunts and bitches, words empower and disempower depending on context and usage, be free and speak freely with whatever bitchass idea you have in your vocabulary punk ass bitch!

Why do people have to take things up the ass it's a word that has been around for a long time

Dude that chick is a Doctor of Bitchology
