I have (light-heartedly) asked my teenaged students about this. I tried to reinforce "sis", which is also in their vernacular/Tik Tok trend. Why isn't "sis" used as often as "bruh"? Why are girls "bruh" and "sis", but boys are only "bruh", so everyone must be "bruh"? But they don't care. Everyone is "bruh."

It’s not exactly “bruh” either.

But weirdly some of them have issues with my Gen X self using “guys” to refer to all genders. It’s confusing!


I use the term “guys” too, even with a group of girls. No complaints yet. And mine say bro in a weird way so it’s not exactly like it was decades before.

Yes, my teen son and daughter and their friends do this too.

Eh. I have other things to worry about, OP.
