Being in our late 20s/30s I don’t like the “boy/girl” part. It also feels more serious. But also I specifically made the change when a relative went on a rant about how he hates the term “partner” because he’s confused if that means it’s an LGBTQ+ relationship or not and I said it shouldn’t matter what gender the person they’re referring to is and he kind of doubled down. My partner and I are fiancés now but we still say partner most of the time 🤣
