People who yearn to become entrepreneurs may find guidance at the new Feminist Business School, an online program that aims to help women launch businesses founded upon the theory of "feminine entrepreneurship" and "body-loving business practices."

Hmmm ... "body-loving business practices" ... I believe there are a ton of female entrepreneurs already involved in this business model, don'tcha know.

Starting next week, the California-based Feminist Business School will play host to an eight-week online "Concepts and Conceptions" course, during which seasoned "midwives" will teach women about the stages of giving "birth" to a new business.

Each week of the course will focus on a different topic. Students will start with "getting grounded," and will eventually progress into more advanced topics such as "the myth of meritocracy," the "stages of birthing a business," and "toppling the patriarchy."

Understanding feminist theory before starting a business is crucial, since it will give you a "huge leg-up on established entrepreneurs" and help you "avoid the frustrations and pitfalls of outdated masculine business models," according to the program's website.

The $1,200 class was developed by Jennifer Armbrust, an artist who graduated from Evergreen State University with a degree in critical theory. After graduating, she founded an art gallery, later becoming a performance artist in Portland, Oregon.

A degree in "critical theory," eh? "Critical" ... as in flatlining? Yeah ... not too surprising that after paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for her "degree in critical theory" that she had to find work in an art gallery.
