    drinking age in the us isn’t indicative of maturity. 20 is legally an adult. girls are children. and only aliens and incels call human women females as a noun. please don’t find any more “synonyms”, you’re making it worse.

      Im an alien. Maybe its a translation thing, in my native language young women are still called girls, there is nothing condescending to call someone a girl even in her 20s. We call children “litte girl”. I learn new things about amerikan culture every day on lemmy.
