It’s kind of a sad commentary on our society that whenever a woman stands up for herself, she is called a bitch.

I am really sorry for this forray into the vulgar, but what I am about to say is a sad but true fact.

When woman gets a little tough in the office place and rubs a few elbows the wrong way………you guessed it…..the B word flies.

When a woman fights says a little too much in a book, or writes an article with a bit a vim, wit, and vigor…..for those who don’t agree….it’s the B word again.

…..go against the grain of the "mainstream", perhaps she asks for the same rights as her breatheren (the right to vote comes to mind)……the B word ( or it’s equavilent in the 20’s!)

I have not been spared. I meet against this little twittle of a word on occassion for something I do that isn’t to a part of society’s liking.

But that’s the great thing with age and wisdom (when we tap into it), it let’s me shake it off and move on with my day content in the fact that if I had to do it all over again, I’d be proud to carry the Big B on my back and do it even better the next time.

Now that’s a Bitch!
