Black Boss Lady: Difference between revisions

The '''Black Boss Lady''' is characterized by being a [[Twofer Token Minority]], both a woman and Black, in charge of probably mostly men in a stereotypically male profession. Right there, you know she's a badass because she must be so good at her job, that even any discrimination which might have been in her way due to either her femininity or her minority status was bulldozed flat in two-point-five seconds by her incredible competency.

 

 

When it comes to drama, her blackness is hardly ever mentioned, her femaleness being the main source of plot. This being so she won't have much of an [[American Accents|Urban Accent]] or have many tropes stereotypically associated with blackness. She almost never slips into [[Sassy Black Woman]], for instance. She's also usually very well-dressed, in a business skirt-suit or slacks (nothing even remotely risque), and it's not uncommon for her clothes to be somewhat masculine. Often she has managed to have her cake and eat it too (mostly) in that she has both a shining career and a family.
