In the name of gender diversity and inclusion, allow me to share an excellent description of the small-souled bugwoman I found floating around the internet (allegedly written by a woman):

The small-souled bugwoman carefully selects a small-souled bugman for her husband, basing her choice on his salary, upward mobility and his tolerance of her bossiness. She not-so-secretly despises him for his weakness and lack of character, but she would despise him even more if he ever parted from approved hive-think and expressed the wrong opinions or publicly disagreed with her.

The bugwoman pretends to be interested in whatever pseudo-masculine pop culture nonsense marketers have used to get between her bugman husband and his money. She has no real interest in his obsession, whether it’s sports, comic books, or video games, but desperately wants to be seen by others as the “cool wife” who shares her husband’s interests.

The small-souled bugwoman rarely has more than 2 children. She drops them off at daycare every day while lamenting that she would give anything to be able to stay home with them, but that it just isn’t possible to survive on one salary in the current economy. She completely misses the irony that she is unwilling to give up her brand-new Lexus SUV, her Louis Vuitton handbags or her Christian Louboutins.

She has perfected her “fake laugh,” which she uses whenever she doesn’t understand something or when the conversation turns in an uncomfortable direction, such as politics, world events, or anything other than reality tv and local hotspots. She is a liberal, but she doesn’t really know why. She uses her fake laugh and changes the conversation if politics are ever discussed in her presence, but she knows from reading the headlines on social media that guns cause most crime in America, “women’s health” must be protected at all costs, and that racism is the worst offense imaginable.

The bugwoman likes to say that she is spiritual but not religious, preferring not to take a real stand on anything of significance. She feels smugly superior to those with actual convictions when she teaches her children that all religions, including no religion at all, are equally valid and that all cultures and races contribute equally to our society.

She has a useless degree from an expensive liberal arts college in sociology or women’s studies and works full-time, with her entire salary going towards paying off her student loans and paying for her children’s daycare. Her job is as meaningless as her life is, most likely in a fluff department like Human Resources, Purchasing, or Marketing, and she spends her days pretending to be overloaded with work while actually wasting time on social media. The bugwoman constantly uploads carefully posed photos of herself with her husband and children to social media so it appears to her friends that she spends quality time with her family and really does “have it all.”
