[binch]
What does binch mean?
Binch is an alternative, usually playful form of the coarse slang bitch, used especially online.
Where does binch come from?

The slang bitch, long a slur against women, has been variously altered in spelling, as seen in the likes of betch and bish. Such euphemisms, sometimes called minced oaths, are common in English. Consider dang for damn, fudge for fuck, and heck for hell.
Until the mid-2010s, binch is found rarely online, often as an apparent typo for bench, bunch, and, yes, bitch. It was first entered as a workaround for bitch on Urban Dictionary in 2011.

In late 2014, however, binch, as a deliberate substitute for bitch, saw a jump in use online and began spreading.
A kid on tumblr calls people "binch" instead of "bitch." I don't know if it's a typo or what, but I love it. All these binches is my sons.

Why binch?ÌýBinch and bitch are very close in pronunciation and spelling, so binch may just have emerged as a softened, less offensive take on bitch. It’s also a way around profanity filters.
I yelled at my sister kno the phone and she hung up on me lol. It takes a lot to get me mad this isn't the first time binch

Indeed, Twitter notably suspended accounts starting in 2017 that directed profanity at verified accounts in an effort to crack down on abuse, likely giving binch a lift.
