[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about the term buddy makes it masculine? A girl can’t be your buddy?[/quote] It just is. So what? Who cares? You can call a female a dude but when you say you saw a bunch of dudes, it’s males. Same with guys. You can say “you guys” to a group of men, women, or mixed but when you say you’re hanging with the guys, it’s males. Terms don’t have to be gender neutral. It’s okay.[/quote]
