I suggest we use the term Wife-slapped or Child-slapped from now on
Everyone is upset at the term Bitch so we will just say Bush* is getting Wife-slapped today. We can alternate it with Child-slapped from time to time. Everyone thinks the term Bitch is the offensive terminolgy so we will just change that but keep the same Slapping of our mate or child around in the true "Liberal" fashion. Is this acceptable now?

1. We could start saying "Bush-slapped."
It's appropriate in ALL situations.

2. Too complex for your target audience.
Are you trying to enlighten or to pop brain-gears?

I don't get it. Bitch is all of a sudden off-limits, but many DUers continue to use the word fuck on a daily basis? Come on.

36. White liberal women imposing their standards on African-American men
This is just back-door racism. White women uncomfortable with African-American slang used it rap music.

It's racism throughthe back door. Can't attack African-Americans and African-American music directly. That's too obvious. so it's an attack through the back door. Attack their commonly-used language.

46. Why do you think the word "bitch" is no longer considered offensive?
Edited on Tue Apr-06-04 01:42 PM by mouse7
It's usage in rap music. Women are called "bitches" in rap music in a non-offensive way. The dictionary editors picked this up and realized that the term "bitch" in slang usage is not offensive any more when it doesn't relate to temperament. It's just a word in the African-American community for woman.

These white liberal women are having none of these African-Americans using the word "bitch" in a non-offensive manner.

9. A "bitchslap" is a woman slapping a man
bitchslap - overpowering backhanded slaps to the face and body, delivered by a supposedly docile female to a supposedly dominant male.

From UrbanDictionary.com, though it can also be used as referring to a pimp slapping a prostitute. Everyone I've talked to uses it in the above context.

In this case, it's applicable: supposedly docile Democrats are beating about the face a supposedly dominant Bush.

13. But, yeah, you're right. "Wife-slapped" is pretty good.
Edited on Tue Apr-06-04 12:52 PM by BullGooseLoony
Non-offensive. No foul or derogatory language. Very PC, very dry. Clinical.

Can we all agree to use the term "wife-slapped" from now on, then, instead of "bitch-slapped?"

On edit: I'm LMAO.

Or "slapping the shit out of", but then that'd get the Scat Freaks all upset, wouldn't it?

To reiterate:

25. Bush took it in the "gut," "jaw," "balls"...his "empty brain" ..kicked in
the butt,ass" "trashed," "snake bit," "Whomped" "pissed on," etc.

"Bitch slapped" is too weenie and offensive. And if I see "douche bag" I don't read the post or the reply. But, that's just me.

30. This is just back-door racism
It's a attack on the language used in rap music. White people uncomfortable with common African-American slag.

The extremists refuse to even take dictionary definitions and usage. It's too-PC. It's borderline racist. Enough is enough.

Personally, I knew Latifah wasn't authentic when she objected to be calling a bitch.

She's just offended because a term that was
once offensive is not offensive anymore.
