I’m just tired of the non stop infantilization of women.

Really, anyone younger than the reader's age. It's how you get some moldy NYT editor insisting 40-year-olds (of the wealthy and powerful) described in the same language as a child.

Simultaneously, we get low income school kids caught in drug stings or busted for petty vandalism or arrested for loitering described as adults.

And don't even get started on abortion or gender affirming care. Too young to decide for yourself, but never too young to be prosecuted as an adult.

Feels like we're always moving the goalposts on when adulthood begins.

Old enough to go to war and die, can't buy a beer.

Make it make sense, and no I don't mean lower the drinking age.
