Boys and girls trying on relationships of men and women like kids playing dress up in their parents' clothes”

what type of figurative language is evident in this line?

hyperbole

metaphor

simile

alliteration

Simile

Explanation:

In hyperbole there is an exaggeration and sometimes it is kind of unrealistic (ex. He is tall as the sky). Metaphor is a comparison of things but not in a literally sense (ex. Love is fire). Alliteration appears in the repetition of some letter in a phrase or verse like in this example from Shakespeare “Beauty's effect with beauty were bereft”. Simile is a comparison of two things using “as” or “like” such as: he is young like my sister or the example here they are comparing the kids with the parents using the world "like".
