girlboss
"Girlboss" is a neologism that denotes a woman "whose success is defined in opposition to the masculine business world in which she swims upstream". They are described as confident and capable women who are successful in their career, or the one who pursues her own ambitions, instead of working for others or otherwise settling in life. A similar and related term is "boss babe".
Popularised by Sophia Amoruso in her 2014 book Girlboss, the concept's ethos has been described as "convenient incrementalism"; the goal being not to dismantle the disproportionate power acquired by men under the coexistence of patriarchy and capitalism, but to take that power for women themselves. This has led to sarcastic and pejorative undertones when using the term, denoting women who attempt to raise their professional lives by practicing the same abusive and materialistic practices found in patriarchal society.
