		<description>@Aronado - I hope it fares well for you and that the members don&#039;t continue to take the title literally (and for topics that only they themselves can affect change per my example).

  If used for the better intentions you have mentioned, it could have a chance at making an impact.  Good luck!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m here to answer this: Can we bitch our way to change?

My answer is: No!

In life, sh*t happens. I learn the lesson and by that I have my opinion. I can then give my suggestion in the right place at the right time. I can take legal steps if needed be. If nothing gets fixed after all said and done, then Nature will take its course one day. What goes around indeed comes around. When my part is done, it&#039;s time to move on.

As for the Betty site, I haven&#039;t gone there and I don&#039;t think I would.

To each his own. :-)

I wish everybody there good luck!</description>

		<description>Thank you Linda!

Sure the posts on the site will run the gamut.  You looked at a couple out of hundreds of posts.  Here&#039;s another: http://www.bitchybetty.org/bitches/bitch/237

I totally respect your opinion and you are correct, not every single post is going to result in a real change.  But, we&#039;ll take whatever % of goodness and social change that does come out of it. Some good, some change, some help, some awareness, some insight, some encouragement will be better than NONE.

Thank you again, 

my best~

		<description>Even though the title was enough to turn me off from clicking on it because it denoted what I stated above, I have gone there now.  This is what I see on the homepage (without joining).

Stop Drinking the Kool-Aid!

  These Republicans are KILLING me! I can&#039;t take all the bullshit…

NOTE:  Not sure what that&#039;s going to change (and solve) but the bitching about it isn&#039;t changing my political opinion regardless of what that opinion is. Maybe that statement will change some republican&#039;s political affiliation.  If I was a republican, it wouldn&#039;t. But I guess the person who posted it feels better.  


Why Do I Have to Lower the Seat?

Women want equality - yet I&#039;m the one that always has to lower and raise the…

SOMEONE tell me that I am suddenly going to tell men in my home they don&#039;t have to do that anymore.  Or that that &quot;bitching post&quot; is going to change the world or the way the world is going to interact with toilet seats from now on.

I already have a solution.  Leave it up and I&#039;ll remove it, trash it and you won&#039;t have to worry about it anymore.  Eventually someone besides me is going to miss that toilet seat and rethink their position on it. 

See, I understand that some people need a PUBLIC forum to do this.  I can see where they prefer to do it anywhere except on their own sites, blogs, etc. either publicly or privately. But if I have an issue about who&#039;s going to take the trash out in my home, my posting it there still isn&#039;t getting the trash out.  Nor is it going to get the world to suddenly stand up for my &quot;trash&quot; rights.  This is what I meant by solution.  

So yes, I went.  It&#039;s just not for me.

For those that like it, ENJOY.  What else can I say?</description>

		<description>I am proud to be one of the 1st Betties on the site. I am a doer and I take action.
bitchybetty offered me the opportunity to share my own fight in seeking justice for a dear friend of mine who was murdered in April. The family was ignored for far too long and had no solid answers from the police department as they wanted to treat her death as a suicide. After several posts in which I included her memorial site and email addresses for the D.A and A.P.D in the hopes that people would read about her story and write in to complain about the way things had been handled, the family finally received long overdue attention and answers.
People listened, cared, and acted.
Let my story be the bricks of the foundation.</description>

		<description>I felt compelled to come back after seeing so many people who think the term &quot;bitchy&quot; is a negative that has to be overcome.

This is a niche social network. People who are offended by the term bitch probably will not use it. What you forget is not EVERYONE thinks bitching, bitchy and bitch mean something negative. Personally, I take great pride in being a bitch. I don&#039;t take crap off of people, and I happen to think I can bitch with the best of them. And trust me. When I bitch, things tend to change.

Anyway, I don&#039;t think many people pointed out that the term bitchy doesn&#039;t HAVE to be a negative or ONLY something said to gain attention. Some of us like the idea of being on a social network for bitching. Just like that, and branded that way. To me, it says in the branding that we aren&#039;t going to put up with the crap anymore.

And I&#039;ll just say this. When I discovered this site on Twitter and tweeted about it, several people commented about how cool the name was. These are people like me who will connect with that term &quot;bitchy.&quot; A good term.</description>
