And clothing that lasts for more than at least one year, sheesh!
But were people allowed to say “bitch” back then? Truly we have advanced in so many ways!:-)
The best is not having to dress up for work. I had a couple of years of that and then transitioned to jeans/sweats/shorts and t-shirt for the past 35 years. That sucked and thank goodness pantyhose is or less gone.
And now many people work from home, in like pajamas or equivalent. Personal toilet, snacks, that’s the life! :-)
Oh yeah definitely not. I’d have been grounded for weeks even in the 80s.
This is when you would respond “Bitch, I said what I said” (Doja Cat, Paint the Town Red), right?! Hrmm… me neither:-P.
I still feel funny about calling my female dog a bitch. But not when I call a person a bitch. I use it most in phrases like “they’re just going to bitch about it”
I think it probably depends on the person and whether they would be okay with it or not? Like is it silly such as “Bish pulease”, whereas I’ve never once heard someone call someone else like a “cunt” (UK, and I guess Australia?) and had it be any kind of okay. But rap culture seems to have redeemed bitch… maybe, for some people?
Edit: as always, it’s the consent that makes all the difference.
