The term bitch has been distorted over time. Bitch was originally a word for a female dog, however over time it has developed a dual meaning. Today the word bitch is commonly associated with a selfish, malicious, obnoxious, or slutty person who is a female. Females today often call themselves and their friends bitches as if it is some sort of a compliment to one another. The word bitch is also used when we are talking about someone we really dislike (once again commonly amongst females) "that girl is such a bitch, I cannot stand her". The term is also used commonly to describe someone who is not hyper masculine. This can be considered an ontological term because the original meaning of the term has been erased overtime. This is similar to the word faggot. Faggot used to be describe as a bundle of sticks. Now, faggot is used to describe a homosexual person.
