There’s a reason why we have the term man-child and not “woman-child.” It’s because we don’t actually expect women to act their age past 21…

Be fr we both know it’s because the majority of women don’t act like children and can actually do basic things like cook for themselves

we don’t say woman-child because women are assumed to be the ones taking care of children. calling someone a man child is saying he isn’t self sufficient, thinks the world revolves around him, and importantly, expects the women in his life to look after him like a child. and it’s much much less socially acceptable for women to act this way and much less common as a result

Yes that’s why it’s always guys running around saying “I’m just a baby” or “I’m just a girl…”

Oh that’s actually satire most of the time. It’s a joke about how women are infantilized in situations where it suits men (like she couldn’t possibly be a nuclear engineer she’s just a girl) but expected to take the full responsibilities of being an adult when it doesn’t suit men . It’s basically a callout of systemic hypocrisy.
