@Aerin17: I would reconsider some of the instances of decapitalized "girls" in this article. While the use of "farm girls" may be appropriate in this artcle, I definitely do not think the use of just "girls" in wikivoice is appropriate. Can you consider changing some of these instances to "women"? --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 12:35, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Coffeeandcrumbs: thank you for pointing this out! I've gone through and changed the uses of "girls" alone. I believe this language came originally from the sources, but you're entirely right that we should not be calling them "girls" in wikivoice, and I'm sorry I overlooked that earlier.
