| 32 | 478 | In the use of expressions, say, such as 'woman' and 'girl', much depends on context. |
| 32 | 479 | In one context, for example, as in the current context, the expression 'girl' is beautifully appropriate, its use being justified not only by descriptive accuracy, a concern with physiological veridicality, so to speak, but by social aptness, institutional relevance, instructional utility, and such. |
| 32 | 480 | Too, does it not suggest youth, freshness, excitement, desirability, attractiveness, and, to some extent, beauty, helplessness, and vulnerability? In some other context, on the other hand, the deep, slave richness of the luscious expression 'woman' would seem more deliciously appropriate. |
| 32 | 481 | For example, consider the locution: "Woman is slave". |
| 32 | 482 | There, clearly, "Girl is slave" would not be correct. |
