A girl is any female human from birth through childhood and adolescence to attainment of adulthood. The term may also be used to mean a young woman.

Usage for adults

The word girl is sometimes used to refer to an adult female. This usage may be considered derogatory or disrespectful in professional or other formal contexts, just as the term boy can be considered disparaging when applied to an adult man. Hence, this usage is often deprecative. It can also be used deprecatively when used to discriminate against children ("you're just a girl").

In casual context, the word has positive uses, as evidenced by its use in titles of popular music. It has been used playfully for people acting in an energetic fashion (Furtado's "Promiscuous Girl") or as a way of unifying women of all ages on the basis of their once having been girls (McBride's "This One's for the Girls"). In both cases, these positive uses are when the word is used for its capacity to collectively refer to the girls' gender rather than to their age.

Where can girl scouts go for and overnight program in Atlanta?
Q. I'm planning a girl scout event for 2nd and 3rd graders, overnight. Where are some places near Atlanta that the girls can stay for an overnight programs. Thanks!

A. Atlanta Zoo does have an overnight program. The good news is that the girls get behind the scenes activity that you can't experience as a regular zoo visitor. The bad news, very pricey. Look at the Aquarium and Coca Cola plant and the museums. They may have overnight stays. If that doesn't work, spend an evening roughing. Most camp grounds such as KOA will have ready made fire rings, etc. making camping more convenient.

A. Welcome to France The dressing sense in France is pretty same. though not much of jeans in summers. August will be hot, so i would suggest some kinda shorts or skirts. sport shoes or flip-flap and a normal coulor t-shirt... what makes people tourists is camera in one hand and map in another and there is nothing wrong in that.

Q. How to start conversation with a girl in a book shop? I tried dropping things,straight up go to a girl and talk etc..,nothing is working what to do?

A. I know you said you've tried it already, but honestly the best way is just to go straight up to a girl and talk. If you want to be more casual about it, you can go to the section she's in and look at the books for a while and then ask her if she has any recommendations... something like that. Good opener for a conversation. If she doesn't respond, she's just not interested. But being direct and just talking to the girl is always best. It will work eventually.
