Bird is a slang term for women. Men often refer to their girlfriend as 'my bird'. If anyone calls me bird then I want to slap them! Many girls don't mind but in my opinion it is very rude. Same applies if someone calls me 'love' or 'darling'.

Note: I don't consider 'bird' to be complimentary in any way, to me it means low intelligence and 'easy', not an equal.

The term 'broad' I have only seen used in old American films so it really isn't a British term.

There do no longer seem precisely concern-free which ability for those 4 yet precise it is the bogus as I see it. - a woman is largely defining of sex. i actually have not heard someone addressing yet another human being utilizing woman. even if, if this happens, i assume the controversy is largely more desirable formal and is meant to stay to commerce without someone reviews. - a woman is a good lady, or an historic lady. the properly-generic case is conditional in loads of situations reckoning on the nature addressing quite than the guy addressed to. both situations particular comprehend, being a woman to this ingredient became very venerated. - a woman is a woman now no longer grown up yet. - a woman is largely universal and self sufficient addressing. some guy use in truth 'woman' because of the very actuality the they're being stunning and ought to safeguard females individuals decently. a woman is in all likelihood used for females youthful than the guy addressing to them. i wish this makes it fairly more desirable clean for you (:

"Bird" is vaguely complimentary -- an indication you're attractive enough to be interested in.

"Broad" tends to indicate a female who's out to catch a male for a sexual relationship or at least by flaunting what sexual assets she has.

I think Bird refers to an attractive female. Unless your "proper", take it as a complement.
