Release your inner bitch
I was watching that CNN clip about lesbian mothers and the daughter of one who wrote Bitch is the New Black. I remember about twenty years ago hearing a woman on the radio in San Francisco who was advocating that women should release their inner bitch. I also was contemplating an observation made about how when you are someone who speaks out in a group, there are people who acknowledge and appreciate your voice and then there are those who distance themselves from you. People fear the bitch in the room, but I don’t. The bitch in the room is the one who is going to shoot straight with you and you never have to worry whether her social niceness is masking lies and contempt or worse, an agenda.
I say beware the political animal and release your inner bitch – or in the words of my favorite bar name ever – Be 4 Real.
