"Of course, bitches tend to cluster together so it’s entirely possible that all of the girls YOU know are bitchy, and that includes the bitch in your mirror."

Well said sir, I applaude you. hahaha

"I think ALL girls are inherently bitchy"

What a bleak view of human nature you have. I can tell you from direct personal experience that there are plenty of girls who are sweet, caring, and generous. Of course, bitches tend to cluster together so it's entirely possible that all of the girls YOU know are bitchy, and that includes the bitch in your mirror.

Try proofreading instead of depending on the spell-checker. A "Caddy" is the person who carries your golf clubs. "Catty" is the adjective you were looking for.

yahh, bitches will always plague the school hallways and even later in life, while I don't think bitches on t.v influence us to be bitchy, it certainly doesn't make it seem like such a big deal! Sometimes i'll be talking to someone and something really nasty and snarky and kinda passive-aggrasive will escape my lips! ughhhh, and i'ldd be like AHHHHH! how did i manage to say that! gossip girl much? =)

i think that the tv shows and movies are reflections of what's already happening in society. and the girls that use those shows/movies as inspiration…were headed on that track anyway.

err Grease had mean girls too.

I think ALL girls are inherently bitchy..even men..it's in our nature to feel threatened and when we feel threatened we attack. I can be a bitch sometimes and there are times when I am unaware of it even happening. It is terrible but it's part of human nature.

I completely think girls are affected by this

I live in ireland and the girls here strive to be the americans they see on TV eg.Regina George and all those mean ''popular'' girls. Its so annoying and they all end up looking like clones with orange faces and hiked up skirts.

Great point Luckyinthecky! Me personally have never been affected by the mean girl, nor would I ever be the mean girl.
