Default Quiz for the females

...would it bother you to be referred to as a girl? Under what circumstances is it okay?



Has anyone in this family ever even seen a chicken?

I highly doubt anyone would seriously call a woman over the age of oooooh...25 a girl. My friends and i refer to each other as girls when we are in groups - as in "hi girls!" but said with the tongue firmly in cheek.

An odd question. Why do you ask?

I'll use the term on occasion, but not too often. But I just read an interview where a 40+ woman called herself a girl and it just seemed...
I don't know. Maybe it's vaguely like the N word. Black people can say it; white people can't, etc.

I once had a discussion about this with one of my male friends. I felt weird about being called 'girl' as I associated it with being young, naive and giggly.
He said it was a compliment he called me a girl, because he associated 'woman' with old, grumpy and wrinkly.

I don't really know what I prefer. I'm still a bit in between. Maybe I should just go for Laydee.

I call people girls and boys still. I don't get offended when people call me a girl.

I did get offended the other day at work when I answered the phone and someone was trying to sell his services as a roofer and kept repeating my first name when I told him "no thanks", and asked for my boss, because maybe he needs a new roof...and I was like "uh, we don't own the building and he has a condo", and he said, "oh okay, thank you sweetheart". and I wanted to punch him right through the phone. "honey" is also bad.


I sound very young, but it's still rude.

How is this a quiz?

I don't mind it. Fiance used to call me that when we started dating and I loved it, it made me feel like a high schooler again. In a good way. "What's up girl?" he'd say as he walked into my house. "Hey girl." And he'd smile that little half smile and I'd be all nervous and omg hoping he'd kiss me.

I'll take girl over ma'am any day.

I think it depends on the circumstances.

Friend and I tend to say "ooooh giiiiiirl" when joking around and saying hi and all that. But in a formal, business setting if someone called referred to me as a girl and not a woman I'd probably look at them funny.

generally speaking, when someone calls a dude "boy" its kind of a put down.

"listen here, boy"

i can understand being annoyed at being called girl if you're a woman.

ps i HATE being called sweetheart or honey by anyone other than my so.

"boy" can also be racist, can it not?

i guess i refer to myself as a chick, never a woman (they are old) or a lady (im no lady). still call my friends girls, and the guys are guys. guy is pretty ageless.

and i've had bfs call me girl, "hey girl" etc, don;t know why but it makes me swoon.

Yeah -- I don't like assumed familiarity or endearment. That crosses the line.

oooooh. that gets my goat too.

in the same sort of thinking i don't like strangers shortening people's names. my brother is called daniel. my mum hates names you can shorten (hence claire) but she was persuaded at the last minute to go for 'daniel' rather than 'graham' - that became his middle name. hey, i'm going to nominate that for your names you don't hear much anymore thread - graham. graeme. in you go.

anyhiz, he is always daniel to us. not dan, danny, or (oh, my teeth hurt with annoyance just thinking about it, but some people do it) danny boy. when people who have just met him use those names just to have a more jocular sort of familiarity it really frustrates me - why don't you go and christen him yourself, ya goof?



she's a pearl of a girl, i guess that's what you might say

Yup.

I can't stand if someone I don't like calls me "Dave." I used to work with this one guy who, finally, I just told him not to call me that.

i used to know someone like that so we all called him id-what crazy kids we were. actually he was quite nutty-he would stop eating and drinking for days on end with only a stone in his mouth to stop himself dehydrating-and he'd lie under his truck.

i find a lot of scottish people i know don't shorten their name-always andrew or stephen or whatever. but quite a few daveys

i wouldn't mind girl-might stop me feeling so fucking old sometimes

I'm okay with being called a girl by other females or guys my age and younger. Beyond that it's kind of degrading.

It would bother me if someone refered to me as "woman" in a serious way. Mainly because, I, too, associate the word with old, boring people and/or retro housewives.

The only person allowed to call me darlin is the old lady at Waffle House. Also, she is the only person allowed to pat me on the bottom as well. Also, she is the only person who wants to pat me on the bottom.

I'm just a girl....

What I really hate if people (mainly guys) call me '"lilla gumman" (little "old lady") which is often used by guys as "sweetheart"
for their girlfriends or parents for their kid daughters.
I've always found it deminishing and would never answer if someone called me that.
