Insulting men & boys by calling them feminine names

@surfcity, yes, that’s what I was getting at.

I like that there is a movement to claim “like a girl” for girls. “Yes, I RUN LIKE A GIRL, try to keep up.” “Don’t you wish you could SKI LIKE A GIRL.”

When coaching mixed groups, I shut down the pejorative “like a girl” whenever I hear it. Given similar training, preteen and early teen girls are often taller, stronger, faster, and more coordinated than boys.
