Empowerment is when people make themselves subservient around you? If you need everyone around you do defer to your ego that's not empowerment.

Why would it matter what it means? There is someone asking for validation and is ridiculed for it.

The source of women's empowerment isn't men pretending that women are strong. It's women who changed.
