As we can see “alphamale” is the perfect example of the type of person I am talking about. An insecure male who is afraid that if they “allow” woman to be dominant, better, or even “as good as men” then they will look inferior. The fact of the matter is that men who are intellectually competent, comfortable with themselves and emotionally stable have no trouble with strong woman. It is true how one treats people is a true mark of whether or not they will be classified as a bitch or not. That is also a true mark of good leadership ability though whether in males or females. The fact remains though and you have proven it “alphamale” that in society woman have to work twice as hard to obtain positions of power because of narrow mindedness. Unfortunately many people don’t stop to think that the women who appear to be bitches are not being bitches they are busy, stressed and overworked for this very reason. Therefore these women have neither the time, the energy, nor the patients to put up with narrow minded shovenistic attitudes. As for your opinion on woman getting sex changes, male dominance, and traditional female roles you do know what they say about opinions. They are like ***holes everyone has one. My curiosity is admittedly always sparked by an opinion that I couldn’t understand therefore I would like to ask you, if you or anyone else would be so obliged dignify me with a response. Why can’t some men accept the fact that woman are as strong if not stronger then men? Why can’t a woman be soft and pleasing in the bedroom and still hold a corporate job? Is that an insult to some men’s manhood?

Because of them attaining jobs with power and money They'll use their "superior" qualities to belittle and bashand control(try to boss) other people because they feel entitled to.many women with those traits ARE bitches and only care about themselves. How one acts and treats others is the difference.In my opinion they are trying to be like a dominant male who with these traits is considered an acceptable type of male behavior.So i think women who have these traits are trying to be men.Personally i hate women like this.They should go back and view the traditonal womens role in society and relationships.If they want to act like that i think they should go and get a sex-change operation.Women please be a women in the traditional sense(soft and pleasing). An you wonder why you are alone and still single...duh! Don't get me wrong i still think women should still be respected and have rights.Don't want to go the way of the taliban.

Why you a bitch cause those around aint on your level those that dont give you your credit dont deserve to be around you. You need new friends

I'm all of those things and I'm not a bitch. I try to avoid bitchy behavior. However, as another user posted, many women with those traits ARE bitches and only care about themselves. How one acts and treats others is the difference.

Some of the women (and men) with the traits your describe ARE bitches. I think these folks enjoy it and really do not feel they need or need to care for or about anyone AND are proud in it. Others are simply focused and have no time (or think they have no time) to be polite or careful in how others are treated. If one is truly well educated, strong and all the other attributes described, one finds a way to get what one wants while demonstrating some respect for others. Being on the top of the hill is fine, but do not forget that at any moment you find come crashing down.

Qverb you couldn't be more right about everything you said. I have no problem with people thinking I am a B honestly. I started out as a 18 yr practically single mom, with an abusive husband on welfare. To become a 30yr old single mom who is a home owner, graduating with honors this year for degree #1, and working at a great paying job. Maybe it's my love of debates, or the fact that I am so used to standing up for people. My son is also unfortunately severely learning disabled and I have had to fight for his rights to get him in a private school. I guess I am just curious as to others opinions on the matter. The fact of the matter is I really could care less what people think of me, and they seem to like that for some reason. There is always though this classification of bitch that I find funny ironic. Simple curiosity with this post I enjoy the discussion.

If that is how the people around you are treating you. Get new people around you. My Dh and my friends don't think strong women are Bs. Neither do a lot of people out there.

Guys have their flipside to what you are saying as far as being strong, opinonated, and well educated. We can be looked at as arrogant, egalitarian, inconsiderate douche bags, and smart asses or know it alls as well. Part of it is the level you take it to. Some folks see themselves that way and, to be blunt, really aren't. When it comes to women, a lot of men don't know how to deal with a strong women. If they aren't confident in themselves they can view a strong woman as threatening, hence a "bitch." Some women that are strong, opinionated, and educated really are bitches. They'll use their "superior" qualities to belittle and bash other people because they feel entitled to. I'll admit, the bias tends to be more towards women because, as I said, a lot of guys just don't know how to handle it. I've dated women that are truly strong, courageous, very well educated (they had PHDs and all I've got is an AA), and believe very strongly in their ideals. I appreciate every single one of them and can stand my ground just fine because I'm confident in who I am and what I have to offer. I've also dated "bitches" that thought truly believe they were strong, educated, and had a right to their opinion. You're not strong when you've never had to work for anything in your life because it is handed to you and then can't understand why so many people stay in crummy jobs because they have bills to pay. You aren't educated when your basis for a well rounded life is obtained from watching reality tv and thinking you are better than any of these people. You don't really have any right to your opinions when you judge someone critically for something that you have never done or never gone through. I hate to say it, but there are a lot of men and women out there that really are like that.
