It is nice to have met you all. Some old faces, some new faces. I’m totally exhausted! Just got back from Rashad’s baby shower and it was absolutely wonderful. I may need you to remind me not to buy that baby another thing! Well, I’m going to turn in now. I think we had a good start today to a nice, long walk along the Lake. See you next week!</p> Hello to everybody that I may have missed earlier. It is nice to have met you all. Some old faces, some new faces. I’m totally exhausted!

There’s no point in arguing with you… especially since in this case the poor young woman WAS bright and beautiful.

How does this sound to you?: ‘A handsome, bright 22yr old boy just died.’

In a serious context we usually refer to a 22 year old male by the more respectful term ‘young man’.

I will chill if you give me a good reason 22 yr old females should not be referred to as respectfully as males.
