Why do "Golden Boy" and "Golden Girl" mean totally different things?


It just doesn't seem quite fair that every workplace can have its "Golden Boy," while every retro rerun channel carries the "Golden Girls."

So, what do we call the boss's darling... the bright, shining example of virtuous employment... when she happens to be female? (And please don't say "mistress.")

And what do we call a bunch of wacky, elderly fellows who happen to room together at the assisted-living facility?

Speaking of the Golden Girls... which one are you, and why??

  1. Old men who live together are codgers. Women who excel in the workplace are a natural occurence.
