Just to clarify, in your view women: don't work, can't be engineers, always want to be in a relationship, and are terribly unfaithful and will leave you for somebody with more money? Also, maybe stop calling adult women "girls".

I use the terms interchangeably. I know there is a subtle difference mostly of maturity but don't care enough to pay attention.

No need to get offended over every little thing.

There's a big difference, calling someone "boy" or "girl" instead of "man" or "woman" is demeaning. How often do you honestly refer to male engineers as "boys"?

> don't care enough to pay attention

Surprisingly, it doesn't matter how much you care.

Yes. The post was also heteronormative.
