So I'm happily reading this vaguely sci-fi-ish thriller by an author (male) whose work I've read and liked before, and come across this:
"Coffee sir?" An aide approaced David with a tray of mugs.
He gave the tiny-breasted girl the barest shake of his head.
Say WHAT? Since when is it okay to describe someone only by the size of their secondary sexual charcteristics? Not only that, but he infantilizes this person, clearly old enough to be a White House aide, as a 'girl.' Not a woman. Swear to Goddess, one of these days I am going to write a story where someone describes a minor male political flunky as "the tiny dicked boy."
