What is it like to be a bitch?
Collins Dictionary says that a bitch is a “woman regarded as malicious, bad-tempered, or aggressive”. Urban Dictionary defines the term as someone who is “inconsiderate and insensitive”. Not nice, huh?
But I prefer Jo Freeman’s version of being a bitch. In her The BITCH Manifesto, a bitch is someone that is domineering, strong-minded and takes sh*t from no one.
For me, bitches are those who prioritize themselves. From mundane to life-changing decisions, they care about themselves before anyone else. Bad bitches don’t seek approval and affirmation from others. They only focus on themselves. I don’t know about you, but it sounds like a good life to me.
If sometimes people call you a bitch or you regard yourself as an unapologetic badass, there’s nothing to be ashamed of. Own it, embrace it.
So here is a list of bad bitch quotes. They may be hilarious, savage and a little bit too much. But they do tell the truth of how to live a care-free life. Time to shake it off, right?

Who’s your favorite bad bitch?
The word “bitch” comes with an endless amount of negative connotations. Merriam-Webster defines “bitch” as “something that is extremely difficult, objectionable, or unpleasant.”
But, as the phrase “bad bitch” rises in popularity, the definition of “bitch” has been revamped. Today, I believe a “bitch” is a positive, goal-oriented person that isn’t swayed by the negativity of others.
Below I have compiled quotes from some of my favorite bad bitches throughout history, including Eleanor Roosevelt, Tina Fey, and Cardi B.
Also check out these Joan of Arc quotes about leadership, faith, and strong women.
