Powerful. Denigrating. Demeaning. Domineering. Bitch is all of that when it wants to be—and more! Part 1 of Episode 9 charts its origins and the way 'bitch' morphed from being a simpering simmering insult to a fashionable greeting and then settled on being both—and came to imply authority AND weakness as well!—when in the hands and on the tongues of men and women across quite a handful of decades.
