A more appropriate word to describe girls who are rugged, sporty, NOT overtly girlish or frilly and less interested in clothes, makeup or remaining clean and pretty while playing.
Girls who play hard and are willing to get dirty and even rough, often playing in and doing typical boys activities, even though WE"RE NOT BOYS! We just know how fun it is to play like a boy ;) . But calling a rugged, street savvy girl a 'tomboy' negates her uniqueness as a non-traditional female. This way that is still honored but recognizes her tough, sporty ways.

"I was a real tomgirl as a child; complete with a boys bike, hotwheels and short hair."
"She's a total tomgirl, she just loves rough-housing in the dirt, chasing and playing hard with the boys without a worry for herself or her clothes!"

Get the Tomgirl mug.A Human Crush is when you have a crush on someone or adore them but in a platonic, non-sexual way.

I just love Robin Wright, I have such a human crush on her!!
He's amazing, that old guy from the corner market, I have a human crush on him.
(not a sexy term but sweeter way of saying boy or girl crush which is odd)

Get the Human Crush mug.Obviously a shortened word for 'probably' now used in internet conversations. Before the advent of this usage, it was commonly used in southern U.S. states in particular Texas as common vernacular and does NOT indicate laziness but dialectal and regional verbage.
Using 'prolly' is not a sign of idiocy or laziness but apropos savoir faire, subcultural quirks, accents and mannerisms just like many other phrases that come out of regional places.
Just think Pigeon English in Hawaii, Brooklyn slang or English/British expressions....we all got 'em!

Get the Prolly mug.When a woman is gutsy or bold, strong, independent and fearless. Instead of saying 'ballsy' one can use 'ovarius' or 'ovatius'...as it refers to her 'eggs' or the female equivalent of 'balls'.

Get the Ovarius mug.Original Geek refers to people who are geeks who have been in tech & computers for decades; much longer than it has been trendy.
My brother is an OG*, an Original Geek, because he's been working with computers since the late 70's!

Get the OG* mug.Instead of LGBTQIA or whatever insane number of lettered acronyms are created to describe the plethora of non-traditional, non-heterosexual relationships of some people, how about call people who don't fit into typical heterosexual standards, COUNTER-SEXUAL. Just like with counter-culture, which is COUNTER to the mainstream, COUNTER to traditional most popular culture, COUNTER-SEXUAL becomes a similar word to describe anyone from that population when referring in GENERAL. When speaking in specifics then someone can still say, gay, lesbian, transgender, intersex etc....otherwise in general reference, it could be COUNTER-SEXUAL which is much more simple and to the point, more literal and less complicated, less controversial or uncomfortable, more neutral while still honoring the differences while trying to include all the different types of sexualities-which could end up using the entire alphabet!
Studies show that there are more counter-sexual characters in mainstream television shows since 2014.
The counter-sexual movement includes all types of sexualities that are not heterosexual.
