Title: Being "B*tchy?
Post by: Cassi on March 21, 2018, 07:34:23 PM
Something that I've been feeling the past few days is the feeling of, for lack of a better word, bitchy.

The feelings don't last too long but it's as if every woman I have ever known has jumped into my brain and I want to act just like they did when they were, bitchy.  I can't think of a better way of describing it.

As I mentioned before, I have had really really wild laughing fits, but this one is new.

Anyone else, or is it just me?

I'll second the "Cassi's bitchy" part.   :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Are you drinking your Crystal Light and staying dehydrated like we talked about?  :D

I confess.

I do occasionally get B*tchy. Especially after my 14 days of Progesterone every month are over. I have ended email threads with one word "Fine" in such times. I know stereotype, but it was meant exactly in that way: "I pretend to agree but you better know I am right and I'll make sure you know. In 6 month. Or a year. Or 5 years.". But then... I have always had such tendencies, even had a T-Shirt once saying "Zicke" which is pretty much B*tch in German. So no surprise here.

Not sure if it makes you feel better but you are not alone.

LOL You Devyl!

No, just water and a partial beer once a week (the beer, lol).
A lot of water, lol.  My E patches kind of suck and don't stick well so I'm not sure about them.

And trying to stay hydrated, not "D", :)  A lot of salt too.

Oh, BTW, bought some leg cramp pills to see what happens but nothing to do with my "B".

As far as meeting up when you're in Vegas, would love to.  Downside, besides being Cassi D'Bitch, is that I lost my car during Harvey and have to rely on using daughter's car which sometimes is okay.  Working on getting a new one, well not a new one - too old for car payments, lol, but it will be a few months more.

I love going to the Miracle Mile mall and checking things out - the place reminds me of Disneyland sooooooo much.  3 story ceiling inside and looks like buildings, some like New Orleans square at Disneyland, total trip.

I think your problem may be caused by the dye in that dark red hair on your head... go back to blonde and the problem will go away.  Blondes have more fun as you most likely know from your days as a blonde.

Hi Appy and thanks but that's not it.  See that dark red hair is just a non-tachable wig (which my daughter hates).  Good try though, keep it up :)

Nice Avatar and outfit though :)

Thanks!  I should use Zicke since my the majority of the ancestors are from there but don't use the "Von" anymore, henceforth, Cassi Von Zicke!!!!!

Let me know when you're here and hopefully we can meet up.

I occasionally get bitchy too.  One time I know was I tapered off Spiro too fast.  Sometimes though I just want to take out my claws on something.  Then I think, pretty claws, such pretty claws.  That at least talks me down.

Btw, starting to figure out where people are from.  Next time I go through Vegas, ill look you up.  Next time will probably be July.

I like having a geographical idea where people are too.  Divisional slang could mean one thing in the US and something else elsewhere.

Did have a tendency to be seriously bitchy when I was younger and male. Don't now because I'm happier. I still don't suffer fools gladly but I've honestly had zero personality changes or modified emotional responses to this transition.

Being B*tchy. Hell I am always bitchy if things don't go my way. Hell I have been called a B*tch so many times in my life that I wear it as a Badge of Honor.

Look we all get bitchy even men. OMFG I have had boyfriends that were bitchier than me. I am a Bitch. I don't mind dating a guy that bitches about his shoestring breaking. I don't mind when a guy bitches to me about working way too much overtime because he is probably tired and exhausted and wants to vent to someone. Every boyfriend I have ever had has done this and I listen and try to soothe them.

But we all get B*tchy and that is trans, straight, gay, lesbian or whatever else in the spectrum. No one is ever immune to bitchiness because if so then they will end up with ulcers so bitch all you want. It is actually healthier letting it out than sucking it up and suppressing it.

I don't know about the bitch part but my spouse does let me know when I am PMSing.  As a guy when she was on her period I just let it go and wouldn't say anything.  Seems she is having fun with me now.  Karma I guess.  A couple of weekends ago we were having a little family get together and my two older sisters unleashed forty years of pent up anger by popping my bra strap any chance they had.  I couldn't get angry with them because I know I deserve it after all the times I did that to them.  Oh well.

I get in very bitchy moods sometimes. There isn't really any cause. Sometimes the smallest little things just irritate the hell out of me. When I get in those moods are when I start getting chocolate from the guys. Lol. They all have realized that messing with me in those moods only makes it worse. So they pretty much leave me alone until I get over it. Tyler always says I'm on " my rag" when I have those moods.

Lol one of my supervisors I was taking well maybe bitching at today literally went in her desk pulled out a huge chocolate bar and said eat it it helps you. You will learn that.

Funny bit.  Last night I was in a particularly bad mood.  My spouse told me chocolate would make me feel better.  She even told me she had some chocolate for me.  So later when we went to bed I leaned over and whispered into her ear "I never got the chocolate!"

Oh, then I must be viewing the wrong person.  Who I'm seeing is a Dorothy Parker who lived from 1893-1967 and was really really popular in the 20s.

Dorothy Parker

On August 22, 1893, Dorothy Parker was born to J. Henry and Elizabeth Rothschild, at their summer home in West End, New Jersey. Growing up on Manhattan's Upper West Side, her childhood was an unhappy one. Both her mother and step-mother died when she was young; her uncle, Martin Rothschild, went down on the Titanic in 1912; and her father died the following year. Young Dorothy attended a Catholic grammar school, then a finishing school in Morristown, NJ. Her formal education abruptly ended when she was 14.

In 1914, Dorothy sold her first poem to Vanity Fair. At age 22, she took an editorial job at Vogue. She continued to write poems for newspapers and magazines, and in 1917 she joined Vanity Fair, taking over for P.G. Wodehouse as drama critic. That same year she married a stockbroker, Edwin P. Parker. But the marriage was tempestuous, and the couple divorced in 1928.

In 1919, Parker became a founding member of the Algonquin Round Table, an informal gathering of writers who lunched at the Algonquin Hotel. The "Vicious Circle" included Robert Benchley, Harpo Marx, George S Kaufman, and Edna Ferber, and was known for its scathing wit and intellectual commentary. In 1922, Parker published her first short story, "Such a Pretty Little Picture," for Smart Set.

When the New Yorker debuted in 1925, Parker was listed on the editorial board. Over the years, she contributed poetry, fiction and book reviews as the "Constant Reader."

Parker's first collection of poetry, Enough Rope, was published in 1926, and was a bestseller. Her two subsequent collections were Sunset Gun in 1928 and Death and Taxes in 1931. Her collected fiction came out in 1930 as Laments for the Living.

During the 1920s, Parker traveled to Europe several times. She befriended Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, socialites Gerald and Sarah Murphy, and contributed articles to the New Yorker and Life. While her work was successful and she was well-regarded for her wit and conversational abilities, she suffered from depression and alcoholism and attempted suicide.

In 1929, she won the O. Henry Award for her autobiographical short story "Big Blonde." She produced short fiction in the early 1930s, and also began writing drama reviews for the New Yorker. In 1934, Parker married actor-writer Alan Campbell in New Mexico; the couple relocated to Los Angeles and became a highly paid screenwriting team. They labored for MGM and Paramount on mostly forgettable features, the highlight being an Academy Award nomination for A Star Is Born in 1937. They divorced in 1947, and remarried in 1950.

Parker, who became a socialist in 1927 when she became involved in the Sacco and Vanzetti trial, was called before the House on Un-American Activities in 1955. She pleaded the Fifth Amendment.

Parker was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1959 and was a visiting professor at California State College in Los Angeles in 1963. That same year, her husband died of an overdose. On June 6, 1967, Parker was found dead of a heart attack in a New York City hotel at age 73. A firm believer in civil rights, she bequeathed her literary estate to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Upon his assassination some months later, the estate was turned over to the NAACP.

Wondered that too. Now it's all in jokes and cheesy stereotypes about chocolate.

Couldn't possibly be that it's an individual having a bad day/week/life - no, not if it's a woman - it must be periods and she must be sedated with chocolate by ever so confused little men. Load of hackneyed old nonsense.

If any man (or woman) presented me with a bar of chocolate instead of listening to what I had to say, or joked about non existent periods, we'd have a serious problem. 'Bitchy' wouldn't begin to cover my response to being treated like some kind of hormonal halfwit who lives a stereotype instead of a life that's mature and sometimes complex.

You don't want to listen to me or have a dialogue? So here's a bar of chocolate because 'women can't resist' and now you're eating, you're not talking, thank god. That chocolate would be left with them, or dropped into a homeless persons bucket, and I'd be feeling mightily patronized.

Only if you think feminism and equality is bitchy.

There's an important point that women aren't often listened to or heard, and our stresses and strains are often belittled, and that's a terrible shame.

We have an ideal opportunity to forge a less stereotyped path, to the benefit of women generally, as fully supportive allies of.

Only number 2 applies to me. :embarrassed: >:-) >:-)

But... I bitch and complain sometimes. Well not exactly true because it is quite a bit. :embarrassed:

Behind every successful man mainly there has been a woman trans or straight supporting him. That does sound kind of sexist and I know.

But sometimes men need their egos stroked. Not getting sexual but when they love someone no matter who or what they need us in their corners.

There is way more to being a woman than just clothes and hair.

I do E via IM. When I was on a 14 day cycle I would feel the drop in E and it was difficult to hold back. I have been on a 10 day cycle for a while now and it helps. I have not been on P for at least a year or two ago. I just started T (a dab every other day) and I have not noticed any negative effects and perhaps some good.

On a diet then bakers chocolate. I have it at home and work. I also have some 90% chocolate in my bedroom :) .

I try to be nice all the time. My downfall is stress. Put me under stress and the nice goes away.

Hi Rach!

My doctor has me on the patches which every time I put them on within hours they crinkle and wedge for lack of a better term.  Once they're on I really don't feel them so if they fall out I don't even know it.

I have already let her know that the patches aren't really working for me unless it's a one a day because of them falling off.  We'll see in May when my next appointment is.

I've read elsewhere on this site when I first joined that a lot of women feel the "E" leave them and get bitchy or something else but I really never thought that might be what it is for me.

Thanks!

OH Jesus. Who don't get bitchy. I have had boyfriends that bitched more than me. Get a load of this... I am a Bitch.

Seriously though. If guys had to shave their legs everyday or wax them or go through electrolysis or laser they would whine.

I shaved a boyfriends pubes one time and did it so nice but he complained about the itching and the pain until the hair peaked back out. OMG the whining. ::) Yet he wanted me totally smooth even my arms.

I do think he had a lot of "Roid" rage though and I ain't talking Hemorrhoids either. He was a body builder. He was kind of abusive but never really hurt me too much other than ugh....spankings????? :embarrassed: I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it. Sometimes at least. :embarrassed:
