Banning the word “Bossy” – Ridiculous!
There are a group of feminists who are trying to ban the use of the word “bossy” to describe women.
High profile chicks are behind this. People like Beyonce and Victoria Beckham (David Beckham’s wife).
Let me give you the basic “low down” (the main idea) first of what is going on. This is insane.
“Bossy” is a word used to describe both men and women. It means that someone is kind of “acting like a boss” of a situation in which they are not the boss. For example, if I told you, “Hey Susan, clean my shoes”, that is incredibly “bossy” because I’m not Susan’s boss and I can’t just tell her what to do, as though I own her.
It’s always a negative word because it’s about people telling and demanding other people to do something. Even a good real “boss” shouldn’t act so bossy. It’s rude, and there are more polite ways to do it.
But now, these “feminists” are trying to get people to stop using this word which has been used for probably hundreds of years. It makes me sick. I find it quite ironic to think that they feel they should be the boss of such a huge cultural topic. Who made them the boss of which words are right and which ones are not? They seem pretty damn bossy to me!
I believe men and women are equal, but not the SAME. They should have equal rights, but we shouldn’t get all men and women to act and think and do everything as one identical type of person. I’m NOT saying women should be forced to be a certain way and men should be forced to act differently, people can and should do whatever they want, as long as it is not hurting others.
Is it unfair or wrong that women often have long hair and wear make up and earrings while men do not? I don’t think so. I don’t want us all trying to be the same. Does long hair and make up make you better or worse? No. It just makes it easy to see who is a man and who is a woman. (I mean, it’s pretty easy most of the time anyway, but you get my point. We don’t all need to be the SAME, in order to have equal rights).
I think the “West” has sucked big time with this topic. Asian, Russian, Eastern European, and MANY other cultures of modern day women are not thinking in this way. They are honouring being feminine, and not trying to make things exactly the same. If you make men and women think, talk, dress, and act exactly the same; it may seem “fair” in some weird sense, but it’s not making people happier. Not men, and not women either.
If some man or woman is acting bossy, I will ALWAYS keep using this word, and I don’t care what anyone thinks. This is insane, and you can see clearly how badly the west is trying to ruin femininity with this fake idea of trying to be “equal” or trying to “empower women”. I believe in empowering women, just not at all in this way. This is completely ridiculous and I would love all your thoughts, from both men and women, all over the world. Please comment below, whether or not you completely agree or completely disagree.
Add and I will be discussing this in the VIP room as well. Will be an AWESOME one.
And here is the article I read about this nonsense. I read about it other places too. Might be interesting for you to check out. :)

Hi Andy. I know there are a lot of crazy people in the world ….like this two( Beyonce and Victoria Beckham) but to use their fame to impose something on people this is suppression of freedom.
Andy you never lived communist regime but this is just that. let’s explain what it is. Currently Ukraine is struggling against this disease communism. This communist regime tells you how to dress, what to say, at what holidays must go otherwise you take money from salary.
How many children have to have, how old should have them, otherwise you will pay tax if you do not marry. It’s scary Andy if you say anything against them, they kidnapped you ,the communist regime, and they fought to the death. Here was in Bulgaria death camps built in order to kill all who stand against this fucking regime. If there are people here from Ukraine or Russia, they will confirm my words. On November 10, 1989 this regime fell in Bulgaria.
I want to say that word ( Bossy) I really like and I will always use it.

This campaign is ridiculous, their arguments do not make any sens at all. Do I get it right ? – they do not mind if woman acts bossy but can not stand if someone call them bossy. One the on hand they encourage young girls to act bossy but on the other do not want to call a spad a spade – sort ot hypocritical thinking. What will it change if someone will keep himself from using this word while at the same time he will be thinking exactly this way. It is not about words, it is about people’s mentality. It is obvious for me that man and women should have equal rights. Unfortunately there are a lot of places in the world where women do not have any rights at all. For sure I can not say that about US and many other European countries where both men and woman are able to achieve what they are aiming for on the ocndition they are professionall, working hartd etc.
Aren’t there any more serious problem regarding women’s rights than word bossy ? I wish that would be the only problem of women from islamic countries.

Hi everybody, holding a campaign for “bossy” in a word, ridiculous. I’m living in Iran a islamic country, of course not like other islamic countries, the Arabian peninsula, Iraq,… the community is changing, All men should know and understand that and adapt yourself with it. women are human and they MUST have rights like men.I thing women and men should be independent in many aspects but live togather in peace.

At present, gender equality is still not perfect, there are many inequalities between men and women. Hope that it will bư improved soon.

Gender inequality has long existed primarily because of the male dominating of the material and spiritual productive forces.
