Girl Vs Woman: Why Language Matters

In this video it focus' a bunch on our use of the term "girl" and how in almost everyday life we see a woman and immediately tag her as a girl just because that is the way we seem to label the female gender. The author of the video makes a point of clarifying who should be considered a girl and who a woman. On top of that when she is with others and they slip up using the term of girl she will correct them by using the things that signify that they should be thought of as a woman rather than a girl. She has made a very good point and we should try our best to make it so that we don't help with the confusion.

She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted.

She was warned to quiet down and not interfere, was given an explanation as to why she was wrong, but nevertheless she persisted. 
She was warned to give up her ideas, she was given an explanation of the rules, nevertheless she persisted she shouted out her thoughts, she let them carry across the world let others know what she wanted them to.
She was warned what was to come if she persisted, she gave her explanation, and yet they all persisted to make things "right" in their own way.
