Car bumper sticker

[Ihaveateenager]

Today whilst driving to town I saw a bumper sticker on the car in front.
It read “please be patient I’m just a girl” it was in pink lettering with a pink bow underneath.
My heart sank when I read it…

Dear God that is sad.

Not sure what I can say without getting into trouble. Was it an actual female who was driving?

Minimising herself and also minimising herself to others, makes no sense. Sad, that she feels ok to do this.

I can’t imagine any woman who’d think that was ok never mind be happy enough to put it on her car.

How depressing.

Pathetic. What a lost soul she must be. Or maybe her boyfriend put it on the car.

Saw one yesterday in Norwich. I asked my college age son about it, stating the same as you op. He said it's from the No Doubt song "I'm just a girl"
That didn't make any sense either. 😕

I just looked at the song lyrics & that seemed to be about pushing back against restrictive parents. No ‘please be patient’ in there.

The use of girl for adult women is irritating enough. The only ‘girls’ who should be driving are 17-year-olds who’ve just got their licence - like my niece - and she’d think this was pathetic.

@AstonToTheNaughtyStep yes I am certain it was a female driver.
@EmpressaurusDeiGatti yes I agree the song lyrics are not in the same vein as the car sticker.
I googled the sticker and found it on sale online - there were other equally sad stickers with the word “girl” in them.
So depressing and disappointing.

How deeply sad.
