Kanye West Asks: Is It Acceptable For A Man To Call A Woman A B-tch Even If It’s Endearing?

Sun, Sep 02 2012 by Bitchie Staff

Ever since Kanye West hi-jacked the usually fashionable Kim Kardashian’s closet, some of her outfits have been  short of tragic. Kim was spotted leaving a building in Soho earlier today in a  weird-fitted peplum top and leather  skirt, hand-picked by Yeezy.  But it seems as though he isn’t the only one  that’s doing the hi-jacking.

This afternoon, Kanye went on a mini-tweeting spree about the use of the word ‘B-tch’ which had a few of his followers wondering if it was really Kim that was  tweeting from his phone.

He wrote:

I usually never tweet questions but I struggle with this so here goes… Is the  word BITCH acceptable?

To be more specific, is it acceptable for a man to call a woman a bitch even  if it’s endearing?

Has hip hop conditioned us to accept  this word? Do we love this word as much as we love  the word N-GGA in an endearing way?

correction, Here’s the age old question, would we refer to our mothers as  bitches? Would’ we call our fathers n-ggers or better yet N-GGAS?

If n-gga is such a positive word, why do we feel so uncomfortable for white  people to say it, even with a hall pass?

Is it ok to use bitch as long as we put BAD in front of it? Like you a BAD  BITCH

Perhaps the words BITCH and N-GGA are now neither positive or negative. They  are just potent and it depends on how the are used and by whom?

What if there was no profanity… What if we decided to legalize profanity in a  sense? In France they play songs with cursing on the radio

I was recently questioned about the use of the word BITCH in my music and  initially was offended by anyone questioning anything in my music

Stevie Wonder never had to use the word bitch to get his point across

I will admit that I sometimes go back an omit cursing from my records. I like  to use profanity as a tool and not a crutch.

I’m not tweeting to say what we need and what we don’t… I just wanted to  think out loud with you guys today…

This could all be a response to the criticism he received after it was  revealed he wrote a song for Kim titled, ‘Perfect Bitch’ on his newest album. [A twitter vent followed by the release of the  single seems feasible]. Or he could have very well taken a listen to Lupe  Fiasco’s newest video for, ‘Bad Bitch’ (which he also tweeted a link to), which  influenced him to think a little deeper on the topic.

Interesting discussion..
