There should be MUTUAL respect between the couple and no belittlement in a HEALTHY relationship.
Constructive criticism is ok.
Fyi, it’s DISRESPECTFUL for a man to call a woman “bitch”.
I am allowed because I am one; a woman calling another woman “bitch” is a totally different thing; it’s like the “n” word which should ONLY be used by Black people.
And I don’t know why you’re expecting a romantic partner to empower you. That is unnecessary and not something I have ever expected.
Empowerment comes from *WITHIN* the self.
