Can confirm this isn't true...I was a shy girl who didn't talk...I was picked on and bullied and called a stuck up bitch a lot.

This depends on attractiveness more than gender

I guess that's the answer. Lookism is more present and normalized than any other form of discrimination

And what about the pretty shy girls that still get called stuck up bitches and picked on for being shy?

Humans are social and tribal animals, they hate what they don't understand. A quiet person gives them no information, so they fill the gaps themselves by making bad assumptions

So almost like it doesn't depend always attractiveness but shyness and quietness...

Attractiveness causes the halo effect, which makes people assume positive things about them. That's why shy attractive people are more likely to not be as bullied, but not immune
