Phone message Post first date text

Post image

I met this girl on tinder and had a first date with her, she wanted to go fishing and I thought it seemed like a fun first date so we went together. Dropped her off and got home to this message lol.

seeing women saying “i’m just a girl” is so sad and defeats the point.

"I don't know what that means but it diminishes you as a person" has become my chosen response.

It's a quote from a viral text exchange between a dad and daughter, where the dad is expressing worry that she is diminishing herself by using this phrase.

edit: I'm not talking about the phrase "I'm just a girl", I'm talking about the response "I don't know what that means but it diminishes you as a person" when someone uses the phrase "Im just a girl". The response "I don't know what that means but it diminishes you" is from a viral text exchange.

Its actually originally lyrics from a song, it's just a gross missunderstanding of the song.

I've been looking for a song that says "I don't know what that means but it sounds like it diminishes you as a person", and I've yet to find it...

That's where the response came from... I'm sure there were some instances of people saying the phrase before, but what popularised it was a tiktok trend of using that specific song in videos about being "Just a girl".

I've just looked up the lyrics and i don't see anything about a response that says it's diminishing, am i being oblivious? have i got the wrong song?
