Question

Do you think it is an insult to use the expression “throws like a girl”, “runs like a girl”, or “hits like a girl”? Defend your position.

Answer 1

Even though “runs like a girl” would leave an impact, i think “hits like a girl” would be more of an insult. Because men would want to seem strong to others and women are seen as “weak” and fragile.

Answer 2

Answer:

No

Explanation:

By saying "You throw like a girl" as an insult, you are insinuating that a woman is not strong. This means you think think that girls/women are inferior to men. This thought process is harmful to both men and women. The truth is, Women are actually very strong, think of your mom. She gave birth to you. Labor is the most painful experience in the world and many women are able to have multiple children.
