[quote=Anonymous]Nothing, if the issue were about calling them girls or ladies or women, etc. But the issue is about whether using the term “girls” is not gender inclusive enough, presumably for those who may be at the school and identify as boys. The semantics of what to print in the handbook is of little import. But it is not a long road from that to the U Penn situation, due to the reverse situation, a boy who identifies as a girl and wants entry into a girls space. Words matter and how we think about girls (and boys, for that matter) matter. In short, slippery slope. [/quote]
