From an interview in Femmes Fatales Magazine :
Although she enjoys the fact that, as a series, 'Charmed' represents the empowerment of women, she is still frustrated at the sexism apparent at the beginning of the season, when she spent a great deal of time getting wet.
"It looked like I was in a wet T-shirt contest," she says. "A lot of our audience are women, so I don't know if they care to seem me in a wet T-shirt contest. It's all men writing the show -- we have female writers, but the majority are men -- and we have typical girl things: She must be scantily clad. Men can be dressed as Nanook of the North, but women must wear bikinis. So, yes, to an extent this reflects female empowerment in the real world, but there are still male actors [in Hollywood] who can get away with so much stuff that, if a girl tried even an iota of [it], she would be done. You don't get that many chances if you're a girl. You really have to toe the line. Luckily, I pretty much don't do anything. I'm incredibly boring. In that way, I think I've dealt with some big things in life, so the small things I really don't care about. I don't care if my trailers and inch small than somebody else's. I simply don't care.
