Mrs Treger, would you describe Colonel Powell as domineering if she was a man? People tend to say that women are bossy just because they’re doing their job as they should do. People are unconsciously backing the concept of the gender essentialism (which is totally wrongful in my opinion) and the result of that is determining women as harsh while at the same time man behaving alike are described as professional and masculine. The reason for it is the belief that women are tender. Colonel Powell was focused on the task. She has the traits that a servicewomen should have.
