If I remember correctly, the proprietor got a little older and wiser and realized that the name might be off putting to some of his potential customers and changed it of his own volition.

I still forget and call it BLMS sometimes.

There was a band I liked that played live on stuff like KEXP, and the singer had to self censor the word bitch but was allowed to say "bitchin'" a different time. As in "bitchin' and moanin'". When it's in a company name it probably causes occasional issues.
On a tangent, I still remember the original version of Black Eyed Peas - Get It Started. That's not what it originally was called, lol.

"Bitch is a hardworking multitasker, happy to switch from noun to verb to adjective. It leapt from canine to human, and even from female to male. It shifted from a person to a situation to a thing. To some, it is invariably an insult. To others, it’s a compliment. It can be friendly, funny, playful or sexual and, when adopted by women, it is often used as a form of empowerment. Yet it also has a much darker side that’s misogynistic, abusive, violent and ugly. Rich and complex in meaning, bitch carries so many semantic nuances that we must always look to context to understand what is intended."

Lot of backlash too. As the hobby became more popular, people started going, hey wait a minute….

I still have some, I've been buying from them for a long time.
The original name didn't bother me, but I understand how it could bother others, so I understand the change.

Does it matter if a bitch loves your switch if a bitch ain’t shit?!

I think they were based in new york (or new jersey, somewhere around there) when they were called blms.

What's with white kids doing acoustic covers of rap songs?! It's like stealing a comedian's jokes.

She's kind of ripping off Ben Folds more than Dr. Dre.
I was going to put one of the stickers on the case of my pedalboard, but I don't want to offend my bass player. Plus I've been single too long to risk offending a lady in the crowd.
I love the sticker where it says it on the side of the switch. There's no updated version of it on their site.

I think they got a pun-infringement cease and desist from the brass purveyors at
Strumpets Love My Trumpets…
Or was it Tarts Love My Parts, in the UK…
Then again, I might be thinking of the industrial adhesives outfit Doxies Love My Epoxies…

I think it was something to do with drawers, but I digress.
