With some specific exceptions, for me. If you are one, and you aren’t using it against others, it’s fine. Like storytelling and describing a conversation, or just even being playful about it. Maybe being at a store with some friends looking at clothes or something, describing yourself and how something looks perhaps? Totally fine in my book. That’s our term, we should be able to reclaim it for ourselves.
But someone else who I don’t know and can’t immediately determine the meaning/context that uses it? Bitch you about to die.
I don’t know. I think reclaiming slurs can be a good thing, (queer, for example), but that one is inherently violent and I always feel uncomfortable when I hear it. Like, there’s a reason you didn’t write it out in your comment.
Fair. I didn’t type it since I don’t want to be that guy like ‘you mean [word]’. It’s very context sensitive yeah, but I think it’s okay in the right moment.
