We should stop using them, especially us females,maskaxda eey naga gashey that we are emotional dim wits which is like saying men are all unintelligent brutes which may be true for some but not the majority, I would hope.
Is it "Man up, don't be such a woman" or "Man up, don't be such a girl"?
The one about not being a girl is correct and has nothing to do with males being better than females or females being better than males. In fact, it is a phrase I can even use with you BV (and while we're at it, stop being such a girl).
Little girls are the sweetest and most adorable creatures in god's earth but they are also the most whiny, noisy and delicate. No grown man or woman (not even gay ones) should act like little girls. It's just not right.
