Not to take away from a great historic victory ... but can I call them girls? ... should I say ladies or women ? ... maybe those or them ... or ms's ... or biological milk producers? ... gee, it's not hard to paint yourself into a woke corner ...

Yes, it's trolling @Woodsie but I am obviously not "woke" enough to NOT find it amusing.

If anyone is in doubt, this should help.

but you just couldn't help yourself.

It's great to see the women (and gals) in Sea Eagle colours winning, good on them. And if women playing rugby league fail to conform with some of our stereotypes about gender behaviour and bodyshapes, then more power to them!

No ... wake up ... I have heard women sportspeople complaining that being called "girls" is condescending ... so it was a genuine question posed in a light hearted way .....

PSS ... The following took 1.12 seconds on google ...


Why We Need To Stop Calling Women "Girls"

1. It Makes Women Into Children A girl is a person under the age of 18 who still lives with their parents. ...

2. It Has Creepy Sexual Undertones ...

3. It Perpetuates Our Unhealthy Obsession With Youth In Women ...

4. There Is No Male Equivalent ...

5. It Prevents Us From Treating Each Other As Equals

Hmm, very interesting @Woodsie I raise you the " Manly Girls" team song. Previously posted by @Rosko above We are the Manly girls! 🦅❤️ Historic opening 16-12 win over Wests Tigers in New South Wales Rugby League Tarsha Gale Cup Tremendous team effort... | By Manly Warringah Sea Eagles | Facebook
"We are the Manly Girls,
We had a win today,
We are the girls you know of,
We showed them how to play"
etc etc etc
If they are happy singing it. I am happy saying it.

Fact remains it is a significant moment, the very first time a female side has run out for the famous Manly Warringah Sea Eagles club, not to mention their joy at getting a first up win …

Yet @Woodsie you insist on deflecting from that, instead focussing on the gender issues and making fun of those who might challenge gender stereotypes. One of your best Woodsie. (Not)
