He doesn’t say he himself is bitchless. To the contrary, he’s wondering what it’s like to know this which implies he doesn’t know which means he did got a girl and is, in fact, bitchfull.
I’ve always hated this take especially considering how the music industry has a whole genre that specifically refers to women as bitches and no one is ever upset by it and women even dance and sing along to them.
People are in general overly sensitive to words online. One day it was suddenly faux pas to say “retarded”. Sorry but why is anybody policing this? If I call someone retarded, it was meant to be an insult.
I miss the Internet of decades prior, where it took at least a room temperature IQ to access it.
Ok, but you’ve done nothing to refute my statement or provide any additional information that’s remotely useful. Just slinging ineffective insults that fall pretty flat if I’m honest.
In terms of ableism, I guess that’s true to a degree. I definitely consider people of significantly lower intellect to be below me, but that’s not to say I don’t still treat them kindly and with respect until they’ve proven they don’t deserve it.
The same people who tell me retarded is a bad word now will still casually drop moron or idiot and they’re synonyms. People decided retarded was a bad word because it’s the one we were using, but now those same people use a synonym and tell me a word is off limits. All they’ve done is give the word even more weight.
People commonly insult stupidity in creative ways. Many forms of “stupidities” are mental illnesses. While you’re changing words around, you’re essentially still coincidentally insulting what can be considered disabilities, so in the end does it really make a difference? “Retard” isn’t a medical term for quite some time now, it is a pure insult. Medical field now says “intellectual disability”.
If I say “stop 'tarding around”, is it less insulting? What about saying “intellectually disabled”?
I never use the word myself (EDIT: … Except now), I just sometimes overthink stuff
Referring to woman as “bitches” might be part of the problem.
Or, is that the “joke”, I don’t gen Z humor a lot of the time, it seems.

He doesn’t mean bitches in a disrespectful way. He just means it as a general term for women.
You can have up to 3 Internet fun points if you know the reference.
How others receive it is not up to him.
It’s a Boondocks reference.
It’s quite unclear if you just quoted a movie just for the sake of random reference, or whether you agree and think that way too

But say it online and ho boy now it’s a problem
I have always had a problem with it.

When I call you an ableist shithead it is also meant to be an insult. You don’t really need to use slurs to do that, you fuckwad.
