I’m looking for magical girl manga where the girls discover and learn magic by themselves instead of it being granted through some contract
Also I don’t like ones where they have to give up the magic when they grow up because that trope is stupid and I hate it

Witch Hat Atelier has girls learning magic by being taught it. It’s not really the magical girl genre – and their mentor is a guy and there are plenty of male witches in the background – but the overall focus is on a small group of young girls learning magic.
Not sure if that’s really what you’re looking for, but its at least adjacent! (Also, the art is lovely.)
