girl vs woman - what age etc ?
 

who do YOU call a girl, who do YOU call a woman?

e.g.

16 year old = girl
21 year old = girl
28 year old = woman ?


whats the standard? and don't tell me that after 18 every girl should be called a woman :winkwink:

edit: I guess non-native-English speakers may see this subject differently as well

according to Google Adwords, Girl = under 18.

i start calling them a woman usually around 40+ though it varies on their personality

I switch the words around depending on how I am speaking.

That girl has a nice ass. (no age known)
That woman is a bitch. (no age known)

To me a girl is a child and a woman is an adult. Boring, I know.

When was the last time you ever heard someone say "I want to see some woman on woman action"?

According to Google Adwords, Teen = Illegal. :2 cents:

Ummm I'm 29 and I still call myself a girl. I look younger than most 21 year olds.

depends on the person which i call :)

The answer is blowin' in the wind...

It think it totally depends on the person, and the context..."girl" can sometimes be condescending, sometimes its a complement. But i'd also say there are no 17 year old "women"...18 at the youngest...

X=2

(unless its Thursday).

they are all girlfriends no matter what age

well, girl should be lower- 18
and woman is above that age. :)

30+ I call them women I think.

i think it depends on the girl... I am 22 and feel like a girl not a woman!

Yeah anything under 30 is a girl. They act like them atleast..

right on point

just call them all 'bitches' like a G

Guys must be boys right up until death.

Heres a clue, if you refer to your date as a girl and she has a problem with it you are with "one of those" and by that I mean a cunt.

I Just call em all Ho's...

(I'm a delight to know...)

I think I agree with most people on here. It really depends on the person. Though I have to say, most girls under 30 are just that - girls. I think the title of "woman" is earned. Woman implies maturity, girl is someone who hasn't reached 'that' maturity level yet. I consider myself a woman. I did consider myself a girl up until I was about 31 or 32. Is that giving too much of my age away LOL ;o)

And yes, I would be offended if someone referred to me as a girl. I've earned my right to be called a woman...

I know 40 year old girls and 21 year old women! It's all relative!

A girl doesn't know that she should get a rag and do some cleanup afterwards.

it doesnt depend on the age as much as the scenario around her. if she's around a bunch of 25 year olds at a party she's still referred to as a girl. if she's a secretary at work, now she's a woman.

Who cares? call 'em girl or women .. it wont change the thing you gonna get.

Girl < 18 years old
Woman ≥ 18 years old

Younger than me = girl
Older than me = woman

Its relative to my own age

girl's some kind of a childish and a woman act matured.. heh :upsidedow

a girl is a girl until she gets over the stupid shit "pamper me, and don't make me put any effort into anything" stage, only after she can stand on her own two feet and put effort into making herself an equal in a relationship and/or life can she be considered a woman. I'd say the majority don't hit this area until at least 25...
