A girl is a young female human, usually a child or an adolescent. When she becomes an adult, she is described as a woman. The term girl may also be used to mean a young woman,[1] and is sometimes used as a synonym for daughter.[2] Girl may also be a term of endearment used by an adult, usually a woman, to designate adult female friends.
The treatment and status of girls in any society is usually closely related to the status of women in that culture. In cultures where women have a low societal position, girls may be unwanted by their parents, and the state may invest less in services for girls. Girls' upbringing ranges from being relatively the same as that of boys to complete and completely different gender roles.
