Personally, I find that being a basic bitch is not a personality trait, but is applicable to specific actions rather than someone as a whole. When I looked up the definition of “basic bitch,” on Urban Dictionary the definition I thought fit best was, “just an extra regular female.” Most of the other definitions had something along the lines of, “boring, unoriginal, generic, etc.”
First of all, when trying to avoid being a basic bitch, you first must know what basic bitches hold near and dear to their hearts. For example, when getting ready to go out at night with all of your sisters, a basic bitch wants to take a million posed pictures, as well as some cute “candid,” pictures that are actually far from candid. Another thing basic bitches love to do is complain about having nothing to wear when in fact her closet looks like the inside of Urban Outfitters. She proceeds to go into all of her sisters’ closets to find something acceptable to wear out. Also, basic bitches ALWAYS think they are fat, or their butt looks big, or their arms are looking rather large today. They proceed to ask a million times if they look overweight in that tight black skirt when they actually look like a stick; it is just what they do.
So, obviously, the first step to avoid being a basic bitch is eliminating all of these stereotypical behaviors. Yes, trust me, I know it is difficult. The next step towards not being seen as a basic bitch has to do with the clothes you choose to wear. When I asked a bunch of my sisters some things they thought connected to a basic bitch I heard someone say Uggs. This is one of the prime examples of basic bitch attire. Uggs, yoga pants/leggings, North Face and much more, are things that basic bitches live for.
Now, when it comes to socials the stereotypical clothing is slightly different. For example, if it was a “Dress to Impress,” a basic bitch would most likely wear some tight body-con dress and sky high heels, or a really low cut dress that she obviously is not wearing a bra with. However, if it was a normal social or even a themed social, she would most likely wear some plain colored crop top with either a skirt or shorts and either heels, sandals or converse. If you avoid combining all of these articles of clothing you will most likely avoid being a basic bitch.
Lastly, there are few very stereotypical things you should avoid doing or saying if you do not wish to be a basic bitch. Do not talk about how you want pizza, or how pizza is bae. The same thing goes for anything from Starbucks. And most importantly, do not say anything along the lines of, “I literally can’t even.”
As I said before, being a basic bitch is not something to be ashamed of in my mind, but if you do not wish to display these qualities pay close attention to your actions in order to avoid being labeled basic.
