How about "skank"? Thats all can say without crossing into territory of words that are "banned" on FR, because this is a family joint.

If you're primary concern is that your daughters will not strive to achieve their goals because some skank called them "bossy" YOU HAVE FAILED AT BEING A PARENT.

I love those Doggie Diner with People Hands films. However, I would never, ever do that to a dog myself. If you interfere with a dog’s basic desire to eat and keep eating, yo deserve to get your hand staplegunned by the dog. Some dogs accept it, but we all have our snapping point, even silly dogs.

Bossy is the problem?? What about all the trash her husband spews multi-platinum album after album?? Hmmmmmm?????

THAT’s the 5 letter word that begins with “B” that she wants to ban?

The idea originated with Sheryl Sandberg, the chief operating
officer of facebook. Sounds like she was an overbearing kid who organized the kids around her in a very bossy way and a teacher commented on it and she’s carried around this boohoo moment for the last 30 or so years.

My worry is the kid who is being bossed around will now be in trouble for calling telling the bossy kid to stop being bossy. And the bossy kid will be perpetuated in his or her bossiness by being told what a leader they are.

“uppity”.

Kids won’t be able to deal with negativity if they are over protected. Also these are probably the same people who are against bullying, yet for some reason they don’t understand that calling someone bossy is usually not bullying. It’s being bossy that is bullying.

Two questions come to mind:

1. She wants WHO to ban the word "Bossy"? The recording industry? California? The Federal Government? D-Bag Records? Who?

If the word "Bossy" is banned, will her video be in violation of such a ban when she says "I'm not Bossy... I'm the Boss"? If she wants a ban, she should start with herself and stop using that word.

Is this the same Beyoncé who tweeted “Take that Mitches” after Obama won Reelection?

Looks like Condi is a bigger Libtard than I thought she was.

I surprised Jane Lynch didn’t want the term “Carpet Muncher” banned as well.

I saw this #banbossy crap on google.

First I’ve ever heard of it. They allege girls are criticized for “leadership behavior” that boys are praised for. Sounds like some bull that feminists dreamt up so they could have something to whine about.

ahaha there are no coincidences.

calling obama a punk..is truthful... but oh so painful to his DEVOTEES.

they are truly brainwashed..just like any other CULT members.

Much of America has become Obamatown...come to think of it.

This Beyoncé white-wannabe needs to be taken down a few notches.
