What are the benefits of reading these bad bitch quotes?
The word “bitch” comes with an endless amount of negative connotations.
Merriam-Webster defines “bitch,” as “something 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 and fierce person
- Goal-oriented
- Not someone who is swayed by the negativity of others
- Confident and successful
These bad bitch quotes will help you understand the new way the phrase is used, while encouraging you to tap into your own bad bitch.
Below I have compiled quotes from some of my favorite bad bitches throughout history, including Eleanor Roosevelt, Tina Fey, and Cardi B.

How do you deal with negative comments from others?
Take a note from the bad bitches featured above and don’t let the negative thoughts of others penetrate your thinking.
I’ve learned that the reason why people are outwardly demeaning is because of their insecurity and jealousy.
They see that you are living in your truth and they are too afraid to live on their own.
Keep chasing your dreams and turning your goals into fruition.
Soon, those negative people will become fans on the sidelines.
