    Call me sexist, but being a person is such a girly thing to do. It’s also such a boy… ly? Boily? … Boys do it, too.

      Hmmm… I guess that’s one of those “patriarchy” types of language most people don’t think about?

      We really only use Manly, because we’re big strong MEN, and girly, because that’s for those weak little girls?

      Womanly I guess technically exists but uh, not really used in the same way.
