You're welcome.

The quote from the title is from the reboot. Shannen says that in response to fans' reactions to the pilot of the show inside the show, when the fans complain Brenda was not bitchy enough in the new episodes.

I also do not think Brenda was a bitch, although she had her moments like everyone. Then again, apparently in the early 1990s every outspoken woman could have been labeled a bitch, so only in that reclaimed sense of the word it could be applied to her. As the editors of Bitch media said:

Quote:
When it’s being used as an insult, “bitch” is an epithet hurled at women who speak their minds, who have opinions and don’t shy away from expressing them, and who don’t sit by and smile uncomfortably if they’re bothered or offended. If being an outspoken woman means being a bitch, we’ll take that as a compliment.
