"Girls" and "men"

"Girls talking to girls and men talking to men, but neither one of them communicating with each other."

That's an assessment of the sad state of affairs of male-female communication. Only the sadder state of affairs is that the author, Serena Williams, refers to females as children and to males as adults. It's bad enough that men do that--women really need to stop doing it. It is especially disappointing to see an accomplished, assertive woman like Williams do it.
