   If I were to say to a group of females, You are all bitches, what would be the insult? In other words, what is it about that scenario that would have set you off? Would it be simply the word bitch, or would it be the meaning of the word? Obviously, the setting has not been explained, so the context the of scenery is up to you. But we are focused on the question at hand. For those of you who have never been told what the actual meaning of the word is, a Bitch, is a female dog. 

  So then, in your scenario, separate just the word itself, from the meaning of that word? Perhaps it was the setting that caused your reaction to the perceived insult? Perhaps it was meant as a joke, but you took it as an insult. Who's at fault then, is it the speaker or the hearer? If the scenario is, that the guy who said this was a comedian on stage in a comedy club, does that change your point of view? 

  Or perhaps he was a magician on stage, and he was busy conjuring up a spell, that would, when chanted, change all the women in the audience into, actual female dogs? In this crazy world of today, anything is possible, things change like the flipping of a dime. Though some fool will read this and be offended for God knows what reason,  for the record, I meant no harm. 

  This is nothing more than a way of thought, a word game, something to consider for fun. Caution, If the above few sentences did upset you to the point of anger, you might want to delete it, burn it, whatever, but get rid of it! More often than not, people get angry because of a simple misunderstanding. We, all of us, male and female, need desperately to turn Down the temperature in this country. Instead of choosing to look at what separates us, look for reasons to unify. We. won't make it alone.
