Once again the religion of "Empower," as the refuge of the dis-empowered. Even celebs cite it, because when rattled, they lose their cool, and fire psycho-babble cliches right from the hip. So, "don't shave your armpits," "run for M-P" and see what I care.

Now as you said it like that, I am finding big simularities in (neo) liberal feminism and "american dream". When people are fighting for few to become millionaires at the expense of everyone else, and giving up their own rights, just in hope that one day they will be one of those millionaries. Same with neo liberal feminism, "every women fight for herself, and we will go over their heads to be one of those few empowered women in power".
