It’s weird he didn’t say “female” instead of “girl”. Are they finally learning that that one’s a giveaway & women avoid them because of it?

AI told him not to use that word

Imagine how mad they would get if the chatbot actually told him this. "Woke!"

He’s on the hunt for that one special female who’s really, really into Ferengi.

Still called her a girl though. Unless he’s really dating someone underage. I guess he might be.

Idk boy/girl are pretty commonly used to describe youngish adults, especially romantic partners.

True, but he seems like the kind of person who would say man and girl.
