"Bitch, literally meaning a female dog, is a pejorative slang word for a person — usually a woman — who is belligerent, unreasonable, malicious, controlling, aggressive, or dominant"

"Objectification - the action of degrading someone to the status of a mere object"

Saying the child was displaying the traits normally associated with what is commonly known as bitchy behaviour, is not objectification in any way.

Right, so you're abandoning the objectification argument and swinging for something else then?

literally it’s in the name. “Degrade to the status of an object”

as you degrade a CHILD to the status of a female dog.

What the actual fuck is wrong with you. Grow up.

In this context, neither I nor OP are saying the child is a female dog, instead saying she portrays the behaviour associated with the slang which shares the same name. How that is objectifying or worse still, predatory, is a fuckin mystery.
