"and a crippling act of gender discrimination to be called 'bossy' "

I'm happy to substitute the word "harpie", "nag", or "obnoxious".

You should probably read more than headlines.

"Don’t just be bossy. Be your own boss" is a message every person needs to learn. Self control is sadly missing in our culture of victimology.

I'm glad Malkin stands up to say that the femdems don't speak for her and many other women. The Ban Bossy brigade is right up there with Pajama Boy in failed messaging.

LOL! You should probably read the entirety of someone's post. You should definitely refrain from putting in to others' posts what they themselves did not put there.

And I still stand by my comments ... which address a different point from yours.

Nice try at being bossy, though.

Ban Bossy is another tin-eared failed liberal messaging attempt on par with Pajama Boy. That a Facebook CEO is involved makes it even funnier, because she had all the resources available to check it against known internet fads and memes used in social networking.

Like A Boss is a catchphrase often used in image macros or GIFs that feature a person completing an action with authority and finesse.

The Ban Bossy message is going to be mocked mercilessly by the NetGeneration they are trying to talk down to.

Wow! You figured it out. And so quickly, too!!!

Gee ... this crap is a couple of days old at least, and you're right on top of it!!!

"Bossy" is a useful word, as are "bitchy" and many others. They describe various sorts of undesirable behavior. I suspect that those who wish to "ban" various words for undesirable behavior themselves exhibit those forms of undesirable behavior.
