When you do a search using the word "chick" it seems to be only brought up as 'condescending' when it is a younger guy describing an older woman. If it is generic or an older guy no one mentions it.

There's another thread on this forum which is titled something about dating a Muslim "chick" and I haven't (and probably won't) even look at that one. Take it from a very old hen that "chick" in reference to a woman isn't a good choice of a word.

No doubt if women referred to"young *****", "old *****", just "*****" or - ouch - "capons" (if you don't know what a capon is then google) in their thread titles, there might be a similar discussion about the use of words from the male side of the theater.

In any case, I would have taken your thread way more seriously had you not used the term "chick" but would also advise you that an age difference of only 6 years is so incredibly minimal as to be not even meritous of a thread unless you really are a half-witted 26 year old with little to no experience whatsoever.
