Hands up all the women here who experienced this type of sexualisation when they were a child.
My maternal gma did it often when I was a young child.
My mother did it to me when I was a teen.

anytime anyone asks a young girl if so and so is their boyfriend.

Exactly.
One example from my childhood, that seems to an “Old Wives” bit of folklore:

You have a gap in your front teeth – that means you’ll marry a millionaire.

I’m 8 years old, Nana…wtaf?
