Chronicling the ongoing intersectional struggle to liberate women — inclusively defined as the legacy kind and the transgenders — from The Patriarchy™, one microaggression at a time.
Zoomer woman films ‘workday’ for cringe TikTok video
In nonstop cringe from start to finish, overlaid by some ditzy pop song and interspersed with that weird duck face that drunk girls at bars always make when posing for photos, this woman films herself “working” throughout the “workday” without ever actually doing any work whatsoever.

'Micro-feminisms’ for the modern workplace
Girlboss feminists have a surefire strategy to improve gender relations in the workplace: a host of transgressive, passive-aggressive power-plays to humiliate and belittle male colleagues, which they term “micro-feminisms” — in other words, totally meaningless gestures designed to make women feel like they’re doing activism without any of the effort typically associated with activism, hence the root word “active.”

Via ABC (Australia) (emphasis added):
Small acts of resistance known as "micro-feminism" can help women feel empowered at work…
Sara Charlesworth is a professor emerita at RMIT's College of Business and Law.
She says an obvious illustration of micro-feminism is recognising there are women in the room and making sure they feel heard.
For example, actively asking for their input in meetings.
Other examples include:
Delegating volunteer tasks at work, such as organising farewell gifts, to male employees
When a female colleague is interrupted, bring her back into the conversation
Use "she" or "they" rather than the default "he" when the person in a position of power is not known
Don't apologise in emails, and take out the word "just" and exclamation points
If someone makes a joke that is considered sexist or offensive to a minority, say "I don't get it, can you explain, please?" or "I'm surprised you feel comfortable saying that out loud."
Girlbosses treat dating like a corporate project, can’t understand why it failed
Among other reasons for the sad state of sex relations, modern American “career-oriented” women, commonly known as “girlbosses,” tend to approach dating and love like a naggy, imperious HR boss recruiting their next employee/victim.

Via Wall Street Journal (emphasis added):
Katie Kirsch, who is 30… runs Lume, a leadership coaching startup, out of New York City. “Maybe we’re doing it wrong.”
Katie spent the first half of 2024 going on three or four dates a week with men she met on apps, such as Hinge and Bumble, in the hopes of finding a husband before turning 30. By the end of the year, she had ramped down the search, calling it “the only thing you can put 10,000 hours into and end up right where you started.”
Many of the men Katie met, she said, either seemed turned off by her ambition or weren’t career-oriented enough for her. She felt discouraged by just how many of her male friends similarly said they expect their future wives to prioritize their families over their jobs.
The unabashed degeneracy of men to suggest their wives prioritize families over their jobs!
American women have never been this resigned to staying single. The challenges of finding a romantic partner have been made more complicated by a growing divide in education and career prospects between men and women.
