    Hey, I just realized the Spanish word for girls is "chicas." Is that where the slang "chicks" derived from?

    that's very cool. i often wondered where that slang came from, in fact that is written down as one of the things i wanted to ask the etymologist guy....very good observation.

    LOL actually, that may be so. But my AP English dude told us (when we read The Sun Also Rises *puke*) that it was brought back from France by the WWI soldiers. Because the French slang for hookers was "les poules" -- chickens.

    LoL. Well, I think the word "chicks" went through the same phase as the word "hoe" is now. Which some people use to describe all women. Which isn't nice. But I guess that's why "chick" is a traditionally guy thing to say. I think with the whole beat/rock'n'roll scene it started to mean just "girl."

    I refer to women as chicks but usually only when I'm talking to friends and I am woman.

    And back in the day my friends and I were gonna form a rock band that was antithetical to New Kids on the Block (that dates me doesn't it?) called New hoes in the 'hood.
