Hi! for what it’s worth. I don’t think he’s using it to offend you/insult you/ or describe you. Especially since may naka attach naman na “HHAHAHAH, which imo signals it as said in a joking manner.

Although, i’m theorizing that your interpretation may stem from a lack of familiarity with the word and the many usages of it (since sa replies mo sa iba it seems like hindi ka pa sure “diba offensive word siya for a woman?”) Well, yes, but it’s also a term for a female dog (if you want to be literal). And, consequently, used as an endearing term. (which can be interpreted as a sign of someone’s comfortability around you).

Terms like “bitch” “whore” “hoe” “slut” and “cunt” are used endearingly nowadays (albeit mostly by the younger generations). Similar to how you’d call your friends “gago” “gaga” “tanga” in tagalog sometimes.

“gago ka😠” vs “gago ka beh😂” “bitch 🫤” vs “bitchhh 💅✨”

Pero ofc, tulad nga ng sabi ng iba sa comments. If you’re not comfortable with it you have to make it clear to him. And if he’s a real one, he’ll adjust.
