"'gal' is a word that comes out of the mouths of guys with handlebar moustaches"
*giggles* I can see that. (That said, my co-worker Alicia often uses "gal" as a general term for people of about my age, but her first language is not English, so she often has trouble with the subtle nuances of various English words, and tends to latch onto a phrase or word and use it repeatedly for all kinds of situations even when it might not really be applicable in my native-speaker way of thinking.)
"Lass' is what guys in utilikilts call girls they want to impress."
LOL!
Something like "you know that tass person, the faerie otherkin elf girl thing from lj?". :)
Heheh! But see, you used "person" there, which was the type of answer I was after. I use "person" a lot myself.
