Similar in usage to "
girlboss", "boyboss" is a term referring to any strapping young man making his way in the corporate world by slowly and methodically eliminating the competition and ruthlessly commanding his subordinates. A boyboss superficially subscribes to modern cultural ideals like anti-
racism and diversity, but if he ever displayed his true personality he wouldn'
t be out of place on the
set of "Mad Men". The average boyboss is a truly cunning individual, only secondary in sheer power and charisma to the elusive "zeta male".
