Funny meme about an LGBT+ topic and wlw without resorting to misogyny.

Still uses "Bitches" in the title.

Just couldn't help yourself, could you, OP?

    There’s an interesting conversation that could be had about reclaiming slurs and who can use slurs and when they can be used.

    I’d argue men talking about lesbians might wanna refrain from using a slur against women though lol

    Fair. Could be internalized misogyny that’s talking.

    The meme is funnier without the sexism.

    And I think it’s great as-is, and I’m a woman.

    That doesn’t mean calling women “bitches” isn’t sexist.

    You’re right, but it really depends on a few factors, such as who’s saying it, what type of person they are, if they’re addressing a particular person or a class of people, and so on.

    Anyway, I’m out, there is shit to do in the land of grass and trees.

    Is it so shocking that women might find the slur “bitch” offensive?

    Geez - you're out to give bitterness a new low, aren't you? I mean... I get it if you're a victim, but you're spitting bullets at virtually everybody you see without regard — even you ought to be able to see it's going a bit too far.

    You’ve mistaken me with someone who cares about people who really really want to call women bitches.

    I agree it's an unpleasant term that I'm not too fond of myself (unless it's truly earned), but I think your approach to the issue is more likely to result in making people take your perspective less seriously rather than give it the respect it deserves. But hey, you do you.

    It was unnecessarily inserted here for the meme.

    Honestly I had just come from the meme where people were judging “already attractive women” for getting plastic surgery over in the meme community. It was abysmal and sexist af, so I was definitely a little more sensitive than I usually would be.

    Youre just sad. Youre making up this story in your head about who I am and why Im making fun of you, and youre sitting there like some kind of knight in shining armor that made a mountain out of a mole hill.

    I’m simply responding to your desire to be allowed to call women “bitches”.
