The word bitch refers to a female dog however, today many women answer to this name without hesitation and they even refer to each other that way. It appears that words that had a negative connotation are suddenly considered positive. The feminist movement fought for women right and many in roads have been made throughout the decades however, it appears we have also taken some steps backwards.
With the advanced of technology, we are bombarded with video vixens and scantily clad women who are willing to do anything to be on television. Television channels like VH1 and BET continues to play videos that exploit and degrade women. These women are often are referred to as bitches in the songs and videos and they are not in the least bothered.
One would think that a derogatory word like this would cause the feminists movement to be in uproar however, even they are silent. Whether or not silence means consent it appears as women we are not as vocal as in time past. More and younger women are referring to themselves as “bitches” and they seem to be no end in sight as to how much lower one can get. I think we are living world were more and more fathers are absent and girls are growing up without the male figure in the home. With single parents on the rise we are raising a society of young women who do not know there worth and they are more willing to stoup so slow without even understanding. With the absence of fathers, it has affected our young women the most and they are recipients of this dilemma.
