Really? You think the first definition is garbage?

Boy, you people sure overreact when someone just points out a little hyperbole. Yes, our words' meanings often change - and often times even to the opposite of their original meaning.

Do I think the meaning of "girl" should include males? No, but it doesn't matter what I think, people are already doing it all over. Are they stupid? Maybe, Will it stick? Maybe.

I won't get excited until they change meaning 1 a (1), though.
