Subject: Oh, det - you big girl's blouse!

I know what it means, but I can't tell you why!

A big girl's blouse is usually someone who is being a bit feeble, or waffling in uncertainty. And it's a worse insult if aimed at a man! He would be most offended to be accused of big girl's blouse weakness.

Now, where the blouse come into that, I don't know! (and I think the 'big' refers to the blouse, and not the girl) So it's billowy and full of hot air, maybe. Gosh, it's hard to explain these weird things, when it gets down to it!
