Another bitch for Hillary!

I keep hearing that Hillary is loud, rude and bitchy, especially on hate-talk radio.

Many of us women have heard the same. I will continue to be loud, rude and bitchy until every woman in this country has access to contraception and abortion rights. And I will bitch until that is a reality. HILLARY 2016!

Being called out as a B*tch is a reality in women's lives today, especially if you are progressive.

guy, this double-standard makes me sick. It's unfair that she gets painted as such while her male rivals are able to avoid the label despite going on more rants. Those who give her the "bitchy" label are just people who are intimidated by tough and intelligent women, and who are stuck in the 1950s.

I'd rather be a bitch than get down and behave and stay in my place, so... pretty easy choice.
