I've literally never said any of those and would feel uncomfortable doing so.

[ianstallings]

But you are aware of these sayings correct? This was not the first time you've heard them, right?

[mrits]

Yes, I am aware. But then again I phrased my original statement to show that there was a small frequency of use of these terms. Where females (in my area) have a very high frequency of referring to each other as girls. Almost like "woman" is a formal term.

[ianstallings]

That's anecdotal at best. These are colloquialisms, they've been around well before you and I were born.

[amyjess]

Yes.

I'll gladly refer to myself as a girl, but I only ever use "woman" in formal contexts.
