<![CDATA[Shouldn't the heading also include "girls"?]]>Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Other Moviemakers

The heading for this topic says "From best boys to producers, discuss the other favorite people who help bring the magic to the screen."
But shouldn't it actually say "From best boys and girls.." since obviously female moviemakers also exist too.

Oh my god? Really? Get over it. Unless it explicitly states no girls allowed there's no reason to post this. grow the beep up. what are you a first grader?
We have what we seek, it is there all the time, and if we give it time, it will make itself known.

It's an old term and probably females are referred to as 'best girls' on the set. So it ought to read 'From best boys and best girls.'

Considering that child labor laws prohibit using actual children as electricians or grips, I'd say it's plainly obvious that the term is one of tradition and not current sexism. Odd that you have no problem with child labor
