        @WSJ other people's self esteem is NOT my problem. If other people think you're bossy, maybe you ARE. People who try to ban words? BOSSY!

        @WSJ if a girl is discouraged from being a leader because of the word "bossy", then she wasn't meant to be a leader in the first place.

        @WSJ this is absolutely ridiculous, no one can undermine your ability to see yourself as a leader. Only you can do that to yourself!

        @WSJ I hope my daughters and my son for that matter, are in a position to be perceived as bossy. That means they are confident & competent!

        @WSJ Will you please stop retweeting this! Bossy is often 'spoilt', not leadership. Boy or girl.Implies a communications problem.Get over it
