At about what age should a young woman no longer be referred to as a "girl"?

Asked by Harp (19179points) February 18th, 2009

I deal with grad students on a regular basis, and my instinct is to refer to a young woman in her early to mid-twenties as a girl (I’m 51). Is this horribly retrograde, or will people think nothing of it?
