Gentlemen: How much does it bother you to be called a "boy"?

This sprung from a thread I started in Coming Together about what it means to "be a man", and how that's different from being a woman. Part of my presumption is that women are less offended by being referred to as "girls" than are men being referred to as "boys".

So here it is, how much does it bother you to be called a "boy"? In your response, it would be helpful if you listed your age, as I suspect this is at least somewhat age related. Please pick the choice that most closely matches how you feel most of the time.

There is an equivilent poll going on in the Ladies Lounge for the women. I thought it would be interesting to get the guys' perspective for comparison, and to see if my thoery is correct.
