[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She came from really humble roots. She speaks in an uncultured accent.

She about to become pm of a g7 country.

Nothing was ever really handed to her. She “leans in”

Interesting that she isn’t being championed as a “girl boss” just because she has different political views

36 year old here. Girl boss is a negative term. Same as boss babe and others. It highlights a need to separate yourself in winner terms based on your identity as a woman. No man needs to say man boss or boss dude. It is self-aggrandizing. It is a cloak of feminism that hides two sides of it: those that actually start their own business (and are somehow special for it) and those businesses that catered to SAHM or underemployed women in MLM-type business. You work. Congratulations.  :roll: On the other side of it, girl boss was the pinnacle of 1950s female plus 1980s padded power suit WOHM. An ideal of sexuality plus success rolled into a nice package that only reinforced the glass ceiling because you need to be a "girl boss" or "boss babe" to be successful. It became a walking SNL skit. [/quote]
