Thank you for your thoughtful reonpsse. I did not interpret the use of the word bitch in the game as the sexually demeaning type (as in you're my bitch ). IIRC the thugs say things like there's that bitch Catwoman which to me is more along the lines of the malicious, spiteful woman definition I quoted earlier. To apply the word to Batman in the way Dr. NerdLove suggested, the thugs would have to use a completely different meaning for the word bitch. Therefore it isn't fair to say the developers are sexist because they didn't call Batman a bitch, because although the word is the same the meaning is completely different.But lets assume the developers intended the sexually demeaning use of the word for Catwoman, so the same meaning could also be applied to Batman. If you call some one a bitch in this way you are making the strong assertion that they are in every way your inferior and subservient to you. Bitch, in this context, is specifically intended for physically weaker than yourself.So it makes sense that a big dumb thug, seeing a 5 foot tall, 125 pound woman in latex, would make the erroneous assumption that she is his bitch (inferior and sexual subservient), and part of the fun of Arkum City is correcting this error by smashing the thug's face into the pavement. On the other hand, it would be silly for the thug to call Batman a bitch in this way; he is obviously inferior to Batman in every way that is associated with the word bitch. I really must stress that the use of the word bitch in this context is all about one's perceived dominance over the other as a means of intimidation. But Batman exudes dominance and intimidation; that's his shtick.>I have never

[quote]You seem to mistake American cutrlue for universal cutrlue; sub-Saharan African cutrlues have entirely different modesty taboos, sexual behavior standards and beauty standards than American or European cutrlue. So, for that matter, do Hindu or Muslim cutrlues.Whether a woman stripping to the waist at the beach is scorned or not is entirely contextual. In many European beaches, topless sunbathing is common. Hell, there’s plenty of that going on in Austin, Texas during the summer months; you only need to take a trip out to Barton Springs or parts of Lake Travis.[/quote] Unless it is your claim that an example is only valid unless it is universally applicable, it seems to me like your reply opens and closes with a bit of needless posturing. Granted, there are places where a woman can walk around without a shirt and no one will look twice. There are also beaches however, likely within driving distance of Austin, where a woman would be arrested for stripping to the waist. That is without going in to all of the places you are going to drive by that would arrest a woman for walking around without a top on that trip. On those beaches, and all of the public places in between, a man can take off his shirt without challenge. A woman who does the very same thing is considered indecent on the level of criminality. Heck, she might have to end up registering as a *** offender in some places. This is an example of how a woman putting herself on display in the exact same way as a man will get her scorned. That trend is nearly universal in humanity, even if the standards are different in different parts of the world. Sure, in other places a woman may get arrested for leaving he
