        It comes from the old German word “Gör” meaning child.

      When you choose to use a word that can imply you are a pedo through its ambiguity, you might wanna choose a different word.

      No one is “outraged”, just expressing the ick felt when an adult in their twenties says they “wanna fuck girls”. It’s gross enough that they’ve got “a list of pussies they want to fuck”, but to refer to that list with a term that often means juvenile is extra gross.

      Using “girl” to describe an adult woman is going out of style, just like using “boy” to describe an adult man started going out of style like twenty years ago.

        Calling a man “boy” might get you punched in the mouth depending on who it is and how you say it.
