The 'B' word
27 January 2005
Listen to this item
is it acceptable to use the word 'bitch'?
The word 'bitch' may not exactly be classed as swearing anymore - but to some it's one of the most offensive words that can be used against women.
As a new anthology of women's stories called Bitch Lit is compiled, Jenni asks just how acceptable 'The B Word' has become.
Please note that the anthology is not yet published. It is due out in summer 2006
