Courtesy of the ever reliable NY Times comes this article proudly featuring dreadnought mangina antics circa 2013.

Quote:

Mr. Dominick said he oversees around $1 billion in assets for a South Korean bank in New York, and Mr. Grinna is the founder of EverTrue, a technology company focused on college alumni communities in Boston. But they aren’t tossing back tumblers of Scotch, basking in the status quo. Rather, as Mr. Grinna put it in a phone interview from his office in Boston, “We are geeking out over ‘Lean In.’ ”

The CEOs of major US corporations are pitching in to spread Sheryl's gospel:

In America, John Chambers, the chief executive of Cisco, and Bob Moritz, the chairman of PricewaterhouseCoopers, have led efforts to bring Lean In Circles, self-organized groups that use free materials provided by Ms. Sandberg’s foundation, LeanIn.org, to their companies. The Circles cover topics like “Creating a Level Playing Field.” There’s even a father-daughter Circle.

But it's the cheerful mangina foot soldiers that really shine:

Quote:

“After reading the book, I now understand that women are promoted on achievements and men are promoted on promise, which is something from a behavioral bias standpoint just worth knowing,” said Mr. Dominick, who said he had bought “Lean In” for nine male friends and colleagues.

And should a mangina tarry, he is lucky to have an amazing woman in his life to tell him to get with the program:

Quote:

And one had to be pushed. “My wife said she would divorce me if I didn’t read the book,” said Stephen Reilly, 40, the executive director of the Fulbright Association, a nonprofit based in Washington, D.C.

Finally, prepare to be ravished by the reality of Asian manginas strutting their stuff in an invitation-only Harvard Business School Asian-American "lean-in circle". A powerful image.
