Charismatic social studies teacher Ms. Bensen offers a thoughtful opinion on the empowerment of women at Jericho, and particularly on the term “bossy.” “Bossy is effective, but it comes with a tone of voice. If you’re bossy you have to have the tone of voice to affect change. Women might be called bossy when they take charge. Though in taking charge women might have to be more assertive than a man. Bossy gets a lot done. I’ve never minded being called bossy. Bossy is empowering.”
