I like the article, but I must point out this one thing I don't want it to perpetuate.
“Every time I see the word ‘Girl’ used in scenarios that are supposed to empower women, it really grates on me,” http://www.forbes.com/sites/kashmirhill/2013/01/30/girls-lad...
It bothers me too.
"A girl is any female human from birth through childhood and adolescence to attainment of adulthood when she becomes a woman." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girl
