<\/a><\/p>\n“Instinct leads me to another flow<\/strong><\/em> These are lyrics from Queen Latifah\u2019s 1994 single \u201cU.N.I.T.Y\u201d which spoke out against the disrespect of women in society. Back in the early 90\u2019s and prior decades calling a woman a bitch was an ultimate form of disrespect. Today, for some people the word bitch has turned into a term of empowerment more so among African American women.<\/p>\n The phrase \u201cbad bitch\u201d was coined in the early 2000s and is used to refer to a beautiful female who is successful and independent. Today it is hard to listen to a rap song without hearing the term. \u00a0Many females gladly accept the title of being a bad bitch, but I\u2019m just not one of them. No matter how you use or say the word bitch, it is degrading and disrespectful. Why do we always have to turn something positive into something negative? Why can\u2019t men just say, “Baby you look beautiful” or “Girl you are bad!”? Why does the word bitch even have to be used?<\/p>\n I\u2019m not going to lie: When I was younger, I would dance my butt off to degrading songs that disrespected women, but now that I\u2019m older, I am more conscious about what type of music I listen to and the message behind the music. Personally I don\u2019t see a difference between \u201cbitch\u201d and \u201cbad bitch.\u201d When you look up the word “bitch” in the dictionary it is defined as a female dog, and I am not a dog!<\/p>\n Ladies, have some class and respect for yourselves; don\u2019t let a man degrade you by calling you outside of your name because chances are if he calls you a bitch, he doesn\u2019t have much respect for you anyway.<\/p>\n http:\/\/youtubehttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=f8cHxydDb7o<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This article was also featured in Inspire Magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Author: Amy Nicole “Instinct leads me to another flow Everytime I hear a brother call a girl a bitch or a hoe Trying to make a sister feel low You know all of that gots to go” These are lyrics from Queen Latifah\u2019s 1994 single \u201cU.N.I.T.Y\u201d which spoke out against the disrespect of women in … Continue reading “BAD BITCH”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":723,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[513,514],"class_list":["post-576","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lifestyle","tag-women-feminism","tag-womenenpowerment-bitch-badbitch-respect-blackwomen"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/576","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=576"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/576\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/723"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=576"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=576"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thedoublescoop2.com\/dev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=576"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
