Tamora PierceWhy do boys say someone acts like a girl as if it were an insult?
About This Quote
Being a girl is not something to be ashamed of. The reason why people say someone acts like a girl is because it means they are not man enough. Girls are equal to boys in every way, but some people just don’t want to accept that. They say girls act like women without realizing that women are just as strong and capable as men. If there were no girls, there would be no women!
