You don't get to determine what people mean when they say a word. You can scream all you want about original context, but as long as the SPECIFIC context in which the word is used isn't sexist, I'm going to go on believing it is not, in that instance, a sexist slur.

If a stranger on the Internet who happens to know I am female, but is angry at me for whatever reason, calls me a bitch, I'm going to assume they're probably being sexist. If a friend who I know and trust calls me a bitch in jest, I'm going to assume they're not being sexist. That isn't a conclusion that would make any sense to me - that's not where those people are coming from. We use it with male and female friends, and the idea of a "female dog" doesn't come to mind when we use it in that context. Both of those things have happened. Only one makes me angry. The other is just NOT A BIG DEAL. You can keep insisting that me and my friends are being overtly sexist when we do that, and I'm going to keep rolling my eyes. Or, you know, you could just accept that not everyone sees it the way you do, and focus on more pressing issues regarding women and sexism.
