One, do NOT infantalise women by referring to them as 'girls'. Two, do NOT try to claim that every female 'loves' a 'bit of romance': not every female falls prey to the illusions of 'romance' - get with the 21st century!

Finally, standing up against the subtle processes like these that continue to degrade and infantalise women worldwid is not grounds for suspension!
