I don't understand women that call themselves a "bitch". It doesn't empower a woman. Rather, it reveals to everyone that you were deeply hurt at one time. Because of the pain your still carrying, you will continue to hurt anyone that reminds you of those moments when you let your guard down and where fooled. Sadly, it sends a clear message to the observant that you still are hurt. If only women would realize that "we all" have moments of stupidity then they would stop comparing themselves to the masses. ↗
