....does Foxy Brown say *beep* This whole movie they're trying to pound the hell out of stereotypes and reclaim power then you see Foxy using another slur. I love this movie, it's just those instances that annoy me.

That was just the 70s and a way to demean the hired help, given that was a period in time when the LGBT movement was starting to become more visible and people were still questioning if being gay wasn't a mental illness.
Plus one has to keep in mind Jack Hill made some pretty politically incorrect films where many of the characters (usually villainous) weren't opposed to using some form of demeaning slurs to demean their opponents.
Was she supposed to call them nice things?
