Girl or Gurl?

[marie354]

Shouldn't it always be Girl?
Not to be picky, but doesn't Gurl suggest something else?
I'd rather use Girl. How about all you gals?

Hi Marie, I agree it should be girl. I always refer to all of us as girls.

[ArleneRaquel]

Never gurl ! Maybe not always a lady, but always a girl.:heehee: :love: Maureen.

"Gurl" suggests stupidity to the extent that an adult can not spell correctly a very simple word that does not give even very young children problems.

Yes. Always she as a pronoun. And I like t girl

[Sierra Evon]

Ive substituted , that word "gurl", and use the the trem 'Girlie, girl, but that might prolly be the same thing ??????

[Breanne]

I've used 'gurl' occasionally, mostly in a humerous way. My take on it is that it's a conraction of 'guy' and 'girl.'
Generally, though, I do prefer 'girl.'

[tvbeckytv]

well im in a minority then, because i prefer gurl. I like the distinction and it fits my sense of identity... that being not male or female, but comfortably feminine(i hope).
For me to refer to myself as a girl is just fantasy...its not true no matter how much i may want it to be so....but calling myself gurl, well that is entirely real.

Weirdo pretty much describes me, but some times I shock my self and think not bad girl:thumbsup:

Well I learned something today. Now I know what a gurl is. I'm still not going to use the word but at least now I know what it means.

[Sally24]

Alot of us use the term "gurl" because we are talking in the same sentences about Genetic Girls and T-girls. I find nothing offensive or wrong with it. I don't mind T-Girl although it is a contraction of Transvestite, a word that most of us dislike. I think most terms that are meant to communicate but not condemn are fine.

Thanks! I see that in a much different perspective now.

Generally womyn don't like to be called girls, however it's spelled.

Of course, we all know that. With us (and our deprived childhoods), it's a magical term.

Spelling it gurl always reminds me of the famous tune:


September gurls do so much
I was your butch and you were touched ~

[carla smith]

No matter what I do I will not be a girl. I am dressing like one, don't wana be one.

I am a C-R-O-S-S-D-R-E-S-S-E-R....:heehee: (did I spell it right!)

Have fun out there!

[michelleliz]

I'm just hooked on phonix myself

[tekla west]

The classic, or traditional if you prefer, difference between woman and girls is.

A - the onset of menstrutation
B - Childbirth

DT is right about many women considering it an insult to be called a girl, just like if I walked up to you in my best suit and said "Boy, you want to get my bags for me."

Or as Jerry used to sing - because it works for both ways here.
"I won't leave you drifting down, but oh it makes me wild,
With thirty years upon my head to have you call me child."

Which is how women consider it, you are calling them a kid. Girl being a female child, and woman being an adult female human.

Hope that helps.

Oh come on girls, ain't we just guys in dresses and skirts and bras and pantyhose and high heels and nighties. Hey what the heck, who cares, it's what you feel inside that matters :2c:

[Joy Carter]

No matter what I do I will not be a girl. I am dressing like one, don't wana be one.

I am a C-R-O-S-S-D-R-E-S-S-E-R....:heehee: (did I spell it right!)

Have fun out there!

Ahmm.Whell acktualy itz "cross dresser" akcoring to the speelcheeker heir.

I prefer GURL because I use is so eveyone knows I'm talking cross dresser not a GG. T-girl is fine as well. Kinda cute but both say what we are.

[Kate Simmons]

Doesn't really matter for me. Call me anything but "late for dinner". I'll answer to pretty much anything except "a****le". Bottom line is I'm a guy in a dress as Ericka and not really a "girl" or a "woman", so I say the choice is up to the person talking. The funny thing is I've never claimed to be a woman. That assumption is always by others. I'm just myself and like it that way.:happy: Ericka Kay

Have fun out there!Well Carla, you can spell "crossdresser", that's why you is one , right?(old Army inside joke):heehee: Ericka

[marie354]

Well I guess girl is actually a complement to the older generation. Used the right way of course.
I just love this place... So many wonderful views of such a simple concept.

Well, perhaps we should call ourselves 'boils", part bo(y) and part (g)irl. You know, we 212 degrees of different!! :heehee:

PennyYou certainly know your Physics Penny. Same thing holds true for the center of gravity I'm afraid. Hard to walk like a "pear" when we are really a "carrot"!:rolleyes: ;) :happy:

[marie354]

Boils? Really?! That sounds as bad as Goy! I can accept gurl for what it is for it is actually more accurite for some of us, but I don't mind being called girl sometimes in a complementary way as it would imply that you pass.

Penny If I looked as good as you, I might go out sooner. I'd call you girl, maam!
