Looks like SMF is working in the expected way.
"bitch" has basically become a word used to describe anyone you don't like, or as a joke to a friend....i use it sometimes, and i very rarely take it seriously when people call me one because it's usually used in jest. but of course it's degrading to women, if it weren't then it wouldn't be an insult! it's the exact same as calling a guy an asshole, it's not like calling a chick a bitch is being sexist or anything (depends on the situation, but usually i mean). the way he was using it, to describe michelle, seems appropriate as michelle was an attention hog and a drama queen, both of which seem like qualities of a "bitch" to me
What were some of the good qualities of Season 8 Michelle?
Actually, Nicky and Alex getting a lesson in "forgiveness" was mid-Season 8.
The plots with Michelle and Nicky & Alex wern't bad, however they did mean less lines for Steph and/or DJ.
