So over the past three weeks I have asked the big boys a questions about the use of the word "bitch"

 
on DU. I still do not have an answer. Perhaps others can give me an answer. Is one allowed to use this term ever, anywhere and at any time? I have seen it used and cannot believe anyone or anything which thinks it an progressive site allow its usage.

18. No he is not because he is a creepy male and the term " bitch" denotes a female.

Why do xy people use pejorative terms that only have to do with those with no penises?

45. Trump is what he is

And he’s a whiny bitch.

89. Wow.

Another poster explained in detail why that term is offensive, yet you double down.

That speaks volumes. About you.

And they wonder why they're called snowflakes ...

43. Yes, I have one: He's a male, so why use a slur insulting women?

Why should women be demeaned for this male?...Use a male perjorative -- If you can think of one.

Uhm, aren't y'all the ones constantly talking about the size of Trump's penis?  How about limp dick?  What is the FIRST thing one of you brings up when you're having an argument about firearms ... I'm trying to remember ... isn't it something about compensating for something ... help me out here.

102. Implying that he is female is insulting, in and of itself.

It's a bad thing to be female, you see, hence the frequent use of feminine slurs to insult men.

This one misses the whole point (actually most of them do), but this one actually typed it out.  It's an insult not because it's a bad thing to be a female, it's an insult because a MAN is NOT a FEMALE!  It's pretty damn insulting to call a woman (a REAL woman) a man, in any form, because she's a FEMALE!

This thread is pretty big and I don't have time to bring it all over, but it's fun to read.

10. to me, it would depend on the context.

The "B Word" and "C Word" do have valid infrequent uses. Some people, such as MF45and his gifting family, and the Cheneys, deserve the "C Word". There is simply nothing else vile enough to call them. And it has absolutely nothing to do with any of their genders.

If the intent is to insult someone because of their gender or genitals, then it should be alerted and removed. As an aside, I note that it seems to be OK however, to call someone a "dick" or "prick".

If it's not gender or genital related, and in proper context, then my opinion is that it should be allowed at times. There are some individuals here who apparently live for the day to alert on and complain about using the "B Word", even if that use clearly has nothing to do with gender. I think those people give ammunition to rightwing assertions that liberals are "delicate easily-offended snowflakes".

Ya think?  And rightfully so!  You bunch of pansies.

This is too much fun!  If they keep that thread going they're going to find out that ALL of them are offended by EVERYTHING!

21. Well you can always call someone a "douche" or "douchebag" instead - because its fine

to imply that women's bodies are filthy and disgusting when referring to people you don't like. If you protest the use of this word you will summarily be declared a whiner.

Who are "the big boys", and should we be afraid to find out?

I'd say whoever they are, they were referred to that way many times while being in for their multiple felonies

[Old n Grumpy]

So maybe he should be called the biggest dick around, or possibly the stinky old tuna taco?

When you asked the "big boys" were you on your knees or bent over?

Not certain of the current hierarchy of the top scolds at the DUmp as I used to be.  It used to be easy to figure that out.  For now, just picture if you dare, Drunken Aunt Nance, Drunken Wee Willie Pitt, EffieBlack, Stinky the Clown, Laydeebug, and LadyFreedomReturns at the proverbial Algonquin round table of stupidity.

Well, NG still pops off with a recycled TL;DR rant every week or so. And Stinker and Mr. Corpulent are still around. OTOH, Pitt, Buggie (wink! wink!), and Nematode are no more.
