Are you maybe over analyzing? Just a thought....ducks and covers his butt on the way out of the thread. I like to write but if I use the same word again and again then its fairly bad. Interchanging woman and girl is ok for that reason but I would have to look at the profile to see if that was what he's doing. "I would like to find a woman who is nice and knows how to plant corn. She should be a woman who is not afraid of pigs or chickens. The woman I am thinking of will be someone like that woman in "Annie Get Your Gun"." |

Guys just sorta use "girl" as a pet name. I think. I don't think they are necessarily looking for a girl. But, you are right about the other way...us calling them "boy" just doesn't sound right. Just one of those double standard things we all have come accustomed to, guess. I call Peccy my sexy man? He eats that up

It doesn't bother me when a man speaks like that. Actions speak louder than words.

Honestly, if someone calls me girl it doesn't bother me but if someone calls me "a girl" I feel like it's demeaning.
Slight difference but there you have it. |

Yeah depends on how it is delivered and how well the person knows you that delivers it. I don't really like a perfect stranger calling me by any pet names...I even don't like waitresss calling me sug or hon...

Personally, I hate it when a man calls me a girl. I'm a woman and it took me a long time to get here. I earned my title and have the wrinkles and gray hair to prove it. Unfortunately.

I think sometimes when you call a service company or something and the guy says "I'll have my girl send it over" or something.I grit my teeth. Tone of voice and choice of words can have a negative impact, yes. |

of a 55 year old guy who says he is looking for the right "girl". GIRL? That alone would make me not talk to him. If I wrote in my profile that I was looking for the right "boy", what would you think? 55 with a 20 , 21 , 22 ....will be a good match if that is what he wants . We are free in seeking our happiness . The rest can only watch and can criticise ..... !. Consenting adults choose for themselves .  . i know, i said i would class 16 or younger as a girl, anything above and a woman |

I have nothing against young boys. Just don't expect me to adopt you.
 Seriously, a 55 year old man looking for a "girl" just does not realize he is a grownup now. He really needs a woman I would think... but then maybe not. JB |
