Update: 6:40 PM. @newsweek you say that you are trying to raise the question of WHY society calls these women “ballbusters”. Why didn’t you just state that in the slide show? Instead the page title reads “11 Powerful Women Who Make Men and (Other Women) Squirm.” I appreciate that @newsweek is trying to raise important issues around sexism, but that title is insulting in itself.

Re: our Gallery. It’s meant to raise the question of WHY society calls these women “ballbusters.” (Hint: because they speak their minds.)

Did u see the story with the gallery? On why the fear of being called a “bitch” is holding women back: http://su.pr/1jsScA
