Is saying "guys" really this bad?

As a female myself I never really had a problem. Guys is kind of a gender neutral word now. People who are non binary/female, do yall really have a problem w someone saying "guys" and not "folks" or "people"

I am a female and call my female friends bro/dude. Which is not gender neutral but they know it isn't demeaning

Inclusivity is much more than that, restricting to such words doesn't make them woke

It's not about correcting others, it's about virtue signaling. My friends call each other, bro or dude. That's completely normal.

These lgtv hd+ guys, I don’t have any problem with them until and unless they want me to participate in their stupid game.

Whenever they say I’m being transphobic or something, my only weapon is that I’m super straight. This is my sexuality now; you can’t say I’m any more phobic.

Plus I’m gonna use guys…..even harder!

Why hate the community? That correction was most probably made by a woman, doesn't mean we're going to spit hate on them.

Guys is not a gender neutral.

People don't have any problem with it, They are building their environment inclusive. It doesn't need to be folks, you can also use everyone.

And yes, I've met people who were not comfortable when people were addressed as guys. It's hard.

Why do people on this platform assume a generic username to be a man? (if the username doesn't give the gender away)

Why is dating in Hyderabad so dead? ☠️

Why can't I find a single decent guy in Hyderabad? Every guy I have met in-person has either a "ZERO personality techie" or is a "KTM driving influencer"

No nice decent men in this city or what? Delhi had great guys but after moving h...

Do we need separate community for women on Grapevine?

Was speaking to two of my friends (from GV) on this topic. One was supporting, and one against.

As a fellow female on Grapevine, I think it is not necessary. If only we stop treating women as second gender, and just see them as basic h...
