I’m all for female empowerment, I’m all for actively encouraging women to take on leadership roles but if you ain’t got the backbone to take criticism, then you ain’t fit to be a leader. As simple as that. Maybe some of the stigma may be down to sexist attitudes but if you’re an unreasonable, power-abusive, moody bitch with a heart of stone, then don’t expect others to regard you in a positive light and I sure as hell will call you bossy. Respect isn’t given, it’s earned.
