If you add MORE POWER! – there will be enough patience for the power tools. .Boss is a non-gender specific word. The Boss is male or female and thus the Boss can be bossy.
Do those ‘ban bossy’ twits ever stop to consider that banning the word would do absolutely nothing to eliminate the behavior implied by the term — assuming that it is the behavioral part of the matter that really bothers them? Certainly that’s what I object to more than anything, whatever you prefer to call it. What’s more, I find the impulse to lord it over others objectionable in women and men alike, so I regard trying to fulminate (or reignite is probably more accurate) another battle between the sexes to be pointless, and in any case toxic.

This is why some segments of our society are trying to ban the word “bossy,” and prevent little girls from growing up and becoming a b****.
