I know grannies who still say they're "going out with the girls" I still say "few of the boys are going football, you coming?"
I can see why "girls" might be used as condescending or belittling, but the above contexts seem perfectly normal to me.
I have stopped saying "girls" on the forums tho. |

"Can I say I'm "off out with the lasses?" Sort of encompasses all ages???
If I dont say that I'm just usually with "friends" because that's what they are - female, Male and everyone in between "
Friends  |

Good job were not all the same then isn't it. I refer to my close friends as my girls my girlfriends etc. And frankly don't give a shit what others think. Oh and I'm a woman too. Loyalty is what counts to me not words |

It's a fair point, and I don't like being called a girl by anyone. However, when I use girls I mean my school mates. It's what our mam's call us and it's a habit a routine, when we're together we revert back to our teenage selves and it's blooming lovely |

Yes, it's not as bad if it's woman to woman in a friendly way. Most of the time coming from a man it grates. |

I find it patronising, if it's said by a 30 something bloke that calls himself 'sexyboy69' that's cringe!!

I haven't been a girl for 30 years - I'll tolerate it from friends in the context of girls' night out etc., but not anywhere else. I'm open and vocal about that.
I don't like "guys" in the context of a mixed sex group either - it re-enforces the idea of the masculine as the norm and erases women. I use folks instead.
Yep, full-on joy-sucking feminist here |

I have a friend from the SW regions and when he says it it’s more of a “gurl” which I find quite acceptable and endearing with that accent
I am with you ladies on the panties though, makes me shudder |

There and to the left a bit |
Like most things it's about context, how it's said, who's said it etc and comes with a huge dollop of personal choice too - as this thread has shown for some it's acceptable, for some it's acceptable in specific contexts and for others it's not - ultimately it comes down to the context and how demeaningly it is meant/used.
I certainly wouldn't use it intentionally in a demeaning way, and definitely not in an initial message here, but I might say something like "Good night out with the girls?" just as I would say "I'm having a night out with the boys"

My mum is 86 and still talks about meeting up with the girls. They wee friends at school. I talk about going out with the lads too. It’s just colloquial. I don’t say it to offend.
However I always refer to the women on here as women, using neither girls nor ladies as I think that’s appropriate. |
