As far as I can tell, she's a butch who imprinted at the proverbial tender age (whatever it was) on a certain type of wealthy WASP alpha-male asshole masculinity.

I am sure you have encountered the type of man who thinks he can do whatever he damn well pleases and that both asking permission and apologizing are irrelevant to him (the kind of guy who apologizes by saying "I'm sorry that you felt hurt" if he apologizes at all). This is that, I'm pretty sure, as performed for both professional and personal reasons, by a masculine woman. It is flavored with a heavy draught of Ralph Laurenesque (who was, let us not forget, né Ralph Reuben Lifshitz) toadying to and romanticizing the WASPosphere.
