saying: > it is widely used in many sections of the working class not well schooled > in university Left etiquette that otherwise may be politically quite > advanced. > Is not a defense of calling someone a bitch [are you opposed to only calling women bitches? How about men?] This is a word you dragged into this conversation specifically for the purpose of condemning both Robin and me. It was not in my post about him. So its not surprising that you have done this. I have learned to look at how a man treats women. I've never known Robin to disrespect women. I saw him with Leila in LA. On the other hand, I know many sophisticated enough never to use the word bitch but treats other women terribly, as is the case with Stein as I described above. And again, if you make use of the word bitch a litmus test your will limit your connects, especially in working class and minority communities.
