It's weird that that strikes me as a kind of ageism, though? You know, that the only time a girl CAN be free or mostly free from the whole burden of gender is when she's literally PRE pubescent!
I wonder if that perception comes because she's the only character really free of "sex." All of the other characters are at least (impliedly if not actually) sexually active. Even the other women.

That's very interesting to think about.
