A Bitch is Born

Traditionally, when you shout out the word “Bitch” you will get a surprise and often-hostile reaction. It sure didn’t help when during the days of “Dynasty” nor when the other Collin sister launched her bestseller book titled “The Bitch”, which in turn became a movie starring none other than the original Bitch – Joan Collins.

This term has certainly evolved over the past two decades and taken an empowering twist emerging as a much used and much loved term amongst women. Ironically “The Stud” remains the Stud even after all these years… no comment.

I like the way Sherry Argov uses it in a tongue-and-cheek way in her book “Why Men Love Bitches” published in 2002. Her perspective on how women should handle relationships is an eye-opener for many.

Bringing it a step further is Teresa Martin Binkley’s book entitled “The Bitch Within”. According to Teresa Martin Binkley, each woman is born with her own "bitch within," or TBW. This presence is not there to hold a woman back from life experiences or to conform to the way of life which is against her very soul, but to give her determination, inspiration and courage to face life head-on. After all it is an adventurous journey.

Lets begin our journey today and let that "Bitch Within be Born".

A Bitch’s Blog

Inspired by some very special people, along with life experience, multitudes of advise and some moments filled with tears as well as laughter has given rise to this blog.

It is my hope that this blog will enrich our lives and most importantly helps us realize who we are as the first step towards building a meaningful relationship with yourself – the Bitch within.
