Because when you are called that, people don't mean you are a female dog, beloved by everyone. Quite the opposite. They mean it to be offensive. But, you are free to accept any meaning of the word you like. However, if people called me that, I'd be angry and insulted.

Because, usually, when people call you that, they mean it in a derogatory way, not a nice way!
They certainly wouldn't be likening you to a four-legged friendly pet!
At the end of the day, it's just a word, so there's not much point getting upset about it - so you probably have the best approach and don't get mad. Others are too hung up on name-calling.
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names can never harm me" - good mantra!

I expect the guy to be respectful of me and treat me nice. Rough talking people is not the kind of crowd I want to be with.
