It's not an offense, it's a word for children. Which makes it a very poor choice when searching for explicit content unless you're looking for CSM.
It's literally not though
Ironically calling a group of geriatrics 'girls' doesn't change the meaning. It's a joke that apparently went over your head.
I'm not sure what you're trying to do, other than perhaps to argue for the sake of arguing, because it's not even uncommon to use to word agnostic of age.
Obviously it's often used colloquially for women. That doesn't change what it literally means. What I'm trying to point out here is that if you're looking for porn, don't call women 'girls', because it sounds like you're looking for children. It's pretty fucking simple.
Your mistaken understanding of how people use the word doesn't change what it means.
Nothing mistaken, I just don't give a rats ass. Using a 20 year old, wildly exploitative porn franchise that went bankrupt after its founder was accused of creating child porn is not exactly a convincing argument that 'girls' is a useful term to find porn of adult women.
I'm showing you a new example of the word being used to describe adult women in every post, because you couldn't possibly be more wrong about it's popular usage.
That's nice. Also completely pointless since you can't seem to grasp a simple concept.
I don't fucking care.
If you don't want to be confused for a pedo, stop calling women 'girls' when searching for porn. It's not the 90s anymore. This is only going to be more common as the fight against AI CSM escalates.
Before you talk to someone next time, imagine them saying "I don't fucking care" and spare the world of your opinions.
Feel free to take your own advice.
I don't fucking care.
Now you're getting it! 👍
Literally only the first example they gave wasn't in existence until at least 2011.
I saw a sign for a strip club in town last night. Know what was on it?
GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS
Should I go burn down the evil kiddie strip club?
I guess if you want to be arrested.
Look, I'm not advocating for anything here, I'm not suggesting anyone who's ever said 'girl' should be thrown in prison.
I just pointed out that it's a specific term used to refer to female children, thus it makes sense that search engines are using it to weed out unwanted searches for child porn. It's a reasonable step to take on their part, and absolutely doesn't affect anyone that isn't looking for CSM. Just use any other word for women. Hell, there are plenty of other derogatory words for women you can use that will still get you tons of results just in case denigrating women is an important part of your searching process.
If you don't want to be confused for one, stop thinking of children all the time, you weirdo.
That's a fair point.
Just remember, when you turn 18 you have to immediately ask all partners to marry you, or else someone will be convinced you are a pedophile for having a girlfriend/boyfriend.
