    That is okay, I just wish it were phrased differently. “For some of us” would IMO have meant the same thing, given the readership and writing staff of Jezebel, without the undertones. It feels infantilizing towards women and unintentionally sleazy to me (like someone saying “daddy’s little girl” about an adult: it’s not purposefully sexualized, it just seems gross to me) as is.

      Did you read the article? They actually address this and say that many men feel this way too etc.
