I think the most important thing to start with is that the word bitch does not have to be a bad thing, a word is just that until you make it mean more. For me, I feel like being able to openly describe myself as a bitch is empowering like I'm taking it back from anyone who has used it negatively towards me. It might not make a lot of sense to anyone else, but it makes me feel like I always have the upper hand.
But let's get down to the good stuff, dumb bitch energy. If you're a woman anywhere from 18-25 you have experienced the dumb bitch energy moments. It's like if big dick energy had a femme cousin who was just kind of... a dumb bitch. I want to follow that statement by saying that I don't really think any woman can really make a conscious stupid decision, I think that it just comes down to want versus a need.
For example, every single woman knows an 'F.W.B' isn't really beneficial at all, in fact, it is the epitome of how to mess with your emotions and hurt yourself. But every single time, we just tell ourselves that it will definitely be different this time. But, it never is. This is a dumb bitch energy mood when you actively know that Kyle from Tinder is really cute but doesn't want you for what you actually are... c'mon sis. You know what's going on. You do not need Kyle from Tinder, he is just a placeholder. If he texts you at 2 AM he isn't thinking about how dope your personality is and you as an adult woman know that. But you choose to hit him up regardless because he is so fun.
Or when you know you have an assignment due in an hour and a half but like why not take another shot? You know why know but sometimes it is that dumb bitch energy that jumps out and bites you right on the butt. But the good news is that you are not alone, other women have felt the power that is.
To sum up your new favorite phrase of 2019, dumb bitch energy is when a woman, normally a boss bitch of sorts, makes an active regrettable decision. But we are not alone, knowledge is key. Now, we can work together toward actively saving ourselves from the 'D.B.E'
