The Crazy Bitch Society

It was a little over a month ago that Real. Life. Woman. Talk. came across a new twitter follower by the name of CrazyBSociety (@CrazyBSociety on Twitter) yes, that stands for “Crazy Bitch Society” and it automatically caught our attention. Ok, with a name like that it would be hard to ignore, right? So who was this “Society” and what were they about? That is what we wanted to know, so the quest to find out more about the Crazy B’s was officially on.  Needless to say, the fact that I am blogging about this society should be an indication that we loved what we saw this group of women doing.  Do not let the title of the society deceive you; this group of women welcomes everyone with open arms. The amount of love that a new Crazy Bitch (“CB”) receives when she comes into the Society is a thing of beauty. All I can say is that I plan on being a Crazy Bitch for life!
I asked one of the three Pres-i-Bitches, Catrina (Hell Cat) Fels to give me a little more insight to the society.  She said that their vision is to reunite women and focus on their similarities instead all the catty and demeaning things women have been known to do to one another in the past. Crazy Bitch Society was just a name for some girlfriends hanging out until November 2010 when the friends put it on Facebook. Everyday she watches as women who would never have known or given each other thought, become best friends through the CB’s page.  Hell Cat says, “It is so awesome to see all these women coming together and supporting one another. I must honestly say that I am so proud and so passionate about this group. We are not in any way the Bad Girls Club. We are the awesome, strong, loving, helping hand giving, got your back type of Society!”  In my opinion, this is exactly why this Society has caught fire and grown tremendously since November.
In closing, I will post a portion of the mission statement of the CBS and ask that you go check them out on their Facebook page and click like just like me if you love what you see: http://www.facebook.com/#!/CrazyBSociety

The Mission
The Crazy Bitch Society acknowledges, appreciates and seeks to unite women: the feisty homemaking single ladies who love being single and the exhausted under-appreciated wives, the free-thinking bitches with a dream and younger women just coming into their own with a bit of uncommon knowledge: and teach them that being a Crazy Bitch is NOT a state of mind.....it is a way of life and you must OWN IT. It is acknowledging that women should share far more life experiences with one another, instead of focusing on what divides us. It is believing that all women should have the freedom to fully embrace their individuality and share it with the world, rather than adhere to what we are told women are supposed to be. It is appreciating the differences among us all and understanding that fostering a sense of unity among women will help make each of us stronger, while making the world a place where being called a bitch has less sting and less power to demean us. ...For us, crazy is living out loud, being true to ourselves, loving our families, surpassing our dreams, embracing our girlfriends, and ending girl-on-girl gossip and bullying. Being a Crazy Bitch in this Society means having tasteful and extreme fun by uniting with all our Crazy Bitch friends and enjoying what makes us similar. It's taking the term "Crazy Bitch" from misogynistic men and women and turning it into a pretty “hot damn” compliment.
