Here's more proof that women don't know what they want and so end up lusting over what they think men have. Then they play the victim game until the man gives them that to shut them up, and then the women realize that it is not so awesome as they thought it was. So then they change the game and want something else that they are not sure about. And the cycle repeats.

Make no mistake, women fall for this. That is why women are a huge industry. Women can easily be persuaded and convinced about anything as long as it is done correctly.

Apparently women now don't want to be "bosses" and want to take it easy "while getting a good pay". The article does not talk about the man in the woman's life (father, boyfriend, husband) who will fund this new trend in the background. How convenient for women. They can jump on whatever Tiktok trend they like and the simp society applauds them and calls them "heroes". In a few years, they will all want to be CEOs right out of gender-studies school. But for now, they want to be snail-girls!

Read on to find out how.


Say goodbye to the girlboss: The 'snail girl era' is here, encouraging young women to live a slower, more relaxed lifestyle

• Gen Z are abandoning the girlboss lifestyle to enter the new "snail girl era" taking off on TikTok.
• The "snail girl" refers to women who prioritize self care and happiness above overworking.
• One expert said it's another example of workers pushing back on hustle culture and toxic workplaces.

The days when the girlboss was hailed a feminist icon are over and now Gen Z are ushering in the era of the "snail girl" a trend that sees women prioritize a slower life of happiness and self-care over hustle culture and overwork.

The term "snail girl" was coined by Sienna Ludbey in an article for Fashion Journal in September titled "'Snail girl era': Why I'm slowing down and choosing to be happy rather than busy." Ludbey is a designer and founder of a shop called Hello Sisi where she sells handcrafted bags and accessories.

"'Hot take for the week, my inner girlboss is dead and my 'snail girl' era has begun,'" Ludbey wrote.

She explained that as a "girlboss" she felt constant pressure "to be perceived as successful" and appear booked and busy. However, after the pandemic, she started to realize that a purposeful life isn't always linked to success.

Ludbey wrote: "A snail girl takes her time and creates to create. The speed at which everything is put out into the world is just getting faster, but she doesn't care. She's running her own race, and maybe that race isn't going anywhere but home and back to bed."

The girlboss identity has faced a reckoning in recent years as young people increasingly experience burnout at work, and question whether dedicating their lives to workplace success is a meaningful pursuit.

Michelle P. King, Netflix's former director of diversity and inclusion, award-winning academic, and author of "How Work Works" told Insider in an email that the girlboss is similar to Sheryl Sandberg's "Lean In" concept as "both are built on the idea that women need to change or fix themselves to align and compete with men at work."

King said: "These ideas are inherently misogynistic because by telling women they need to do more or be more to advance at work, we are in fact telling them that they are not good enough to start with."

Gen Z are rejecting these ideas and turning to other solutions to find meaning. One example is the "lazy girl jobs" trend on TikTok, which advises women to find joy in their lives outside work by taking on low effort jobs with good pay.

Now she's calling Sheryl Sandberg a misogynist.

Guess you just need to write a book on explaining things to girls while throwing something of theirs in the trash (like your daughter's participation trophy) and then bragging like you're a badass for throwing it in the trash in front of them. Your such a badass - just need to pee on more things to get all these women trained like you think they should be.

Are there snail trails involved in this lifestyle?

What was your goal in posting this?

Yeah yeah yeah, you hate women we get it.

Yes, all participation trophies go into the trash. No 2 ways to it.
All "earned trophies" sit above my fireplace in a visible location which I display proudly. I have a good number of them which my kids won the hard way.

Yes, I made sure I threw the participation trophies into the trash in front of them while explaining that life does not reward you for participating or "showing up". Life rewards you for effort and sacrifice and a whole lot more.

One correction though. I am not a badass for throwing out the participation trophies. That is just good parenting.
I am a BIG badass for raising successful hard working productive kids who will contribute to society and not go on welfare by playing victim.

It's pretty simple. This is how winners do things.

To educate you of the latest trends. You don't want to be left behind trying to be a girl boss when everyone else is trying to be a snail girl.

Life is changing too fast for us old people.

"Toxic"

Anything someone doesn't like today or that offends or they disagree with, just label it "toxic".

Parents who take credit for their children's outward achievements.

Nothing about a linoleum floor. Kind of surprised.

Breaking news: 50% of the human population is a "huge" industry.

won the hard way.

He said 'Hard" hahaha !!

Anyone who wants to be happier by trying to reduce stress but still make decent pay is a beggar and idiot, eh OP? Don't tell me that you don't know someone lazy as **** that still makes bank. There's plenty of them in "leadership" roles.

I was wandering the same thing!

You're BombayAg!

So the OP and his misogyny aside, does this mean that feminism is over? The glass ceiling is still there? And just wanting a sugar daddy is now acceptable again?

No idea. Outside of the fact that OP can't get laid, I've learned nothing from this thread.

I empathize with women to some degree because I do indeed think they are facing an uphill battle in the workplace. But it's not too dissimilar from the uphill battle that men probably face as being caregivers or running things at home.

Where it gets annoying for me is the whining and categorical blaming of the entire other gender that seems to prevail the conversation. I have zero doubts that a whiney man wouldn't get a woman's respect so it seems ridiculous to think that a woman whining would garner a positive reaction. It's just not an attractive quality.

I can't think of a single man I know with professional success that whined their way to the top.

There is no uphill battle for women in corporate America.

Ask anyone high in corporate recruiting- women are being pandered to like no other and being hired for positions outside their experience simply for the DEI points. Many corporations are putting quotas on hiring and promotions saying a certain percentage have to be female at all times meaning that even the unqualified are getting hired and promoted to high levels just because they have the correct genitalia.

You're correct ton the whining but spare me the white knighting.

They don't have it hard.

Where does the recent botched hire of the journalism department head and subsequent payment of $1M to her for said botched hire fit into this?

I'm pretty sure just noting and quoting what women said about themselves and their own views isn't misogyny. Don't shoot the messenger.

Besides, Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, and Dolly Parton got high and stuck it to Dabney Coleman 4 decades ago….

Teach everyone that lazy is the way to go. That way the actual producers can forge ahead

Reviewing subject lines of posts started by the OP is, uh, interesting.

Disagree. To deny that any minority doesn't have an uphill battle is naive. Probably not by as big of a margin as they used to but it still exists.

Actually I just checked...

Per U.S. News & World Report:

Quote:

---

In 2021, women made up 47.4% of the workforce, but only 31.7% of top executive roles.

---

So, almost half the corporate workforce is represented by women, but less than a 1/3 are in executive roles.

It's not "white-knighting". It's calling it how I see it.

I believe in reward and success based on merit.

Do I think that quotas and pandering is the answer? No.
Do I think someone should be rewarded for the sexual orientation, skin color, or gender? No.

But we live in a litigious society and companies care about their image and their bottom line - not necessarily equality.

She was a DEI hire from the start. Once people started digging in and looking at her journalistic history and her views on journalism (which she has stated multiple times as not to report the facts, but to ignore the facts in support of social change) the people in charge of approving her hire had second thoughts about what kind of journalism college she would create.

The issue was that she got offered the job BEFORE she was vetted.

Nothing in the rescission of the job had to do with race or gender.

If the goal was to create a journalism department that would be focused on actual journalism instead of spitting out woke social justice warriors then she was not the correct hire.

Did u stop to consider that to become an executive you basically have to work 50 hours a week to get to that level then be willing to work 70 hours a week to do that job.

When asked if they are willing to work that long and hard for an executive position women overwhelmingly in every poll and study ever done respond no.

Then women typically take time off of work to have kids, which slows down their professional promotion by several years.

Then after they have kids they want to work less to have time with their child which decelerate their professional growth even more.

And then when women attain lower level executive positions they abandon them completely at rates much higher than men because they realize they don't want to work 70 hours a week.

There are some women who want to work like that.
There are an overwhelmingly many who don't.

Hell most MEN don't want to work like that and it is a very small percentage who do.

So say 2% of all men are willing to put in the work and are smart enough to take on those executive level rolls.

But only .5% of women are.

It would be asinine to believe that women and men would be represented equally at the executive level.

You are looking at the end result stats of achievement and ASSUMING sexism is to play without any evidence for the fact

When studies on behavior show overwhelmingly that women do not want to put in the work and all the BS that comes with those jobs. They may say they want them but when asked if they are willing to do what is necessary to get and stay there they don't really want them after all.

And I am not saying women shouldn't have those jobs

If they have the talent and put in the work then they should 100% have the opportunity and studies of the most egalitarian societies in the world show that women overwhelmingly choose to NOT do it.

Women and men are different.

That is okay.

Your approach is the same as someone looking at the pay of the WNBA and NBA players and assuming that there is sexism inherent in the pay because WNBA women don't get paid the same for "the same work".

But when you look at things like ticket sales, revenue generated, etc the WNBA players get paid out at a much higher percentage of revenue than NBA players.

And WNBA players would get paid MORE if women actually went to the games.

Women are half the US population. If wen would buy tickets to the WNBA at the same rate as men or even watch it on TV then WNBA players would get paid just as much as the men.

It's women's fault the WNBA players get paid peanuts. It's because of men subsidizing their league that they even get to play.

90 percent of ALL roofers are men.

Applying your logic- there is discrimination against women to keep them from becoming roofers and we need to fix that because muh feminism.

By my logic roofing is a miserable and physically taxing job and women don't want to do it.

Which one is more likely?

Oh and the OP article shows its the latter because its all about how these girl bosses don't want to put in the hours and up with the bs to get to the boss level.

But ur right. I am the knuckle dragging Neanderthal and ur the enlightened one.
