if you call everyone dude and a transfem person gets mad about it, don't get defensive. just say like "sorry, i won't do it again" and don't argue "actually it's gender neutral" or "i call everyone dude". even if you do, i guarantee she's heard that argument from someone who very much does not call people they see as women dude. i certainly have

same goes double for the word guy.

I think it can be (not always), but if someone is bothered by it I'm not going to bother them about it.

One that annoyed me was saying "man" at the start of sentences. Like "man, this sucks", which seems to me like "Allah, this sucks". I'm not referring to people in the vicinity. But it took me a while to figure out what the annoyance was. Also only one person seemed to think I was referring to them and I stopped around them.

Anyone care to share thoughts on bruh and bruh moment?

cos the root is bro, right? Bruh seems like it could be hurtful, but a bruh moment is almost its own thing

About as offensive as bro. Yes, i'm aware that it's often not even used to adress somebody directly, idgaf, just don't.

Never called people dude because I found it too cringey and try hard. I find it especially weird when I see parents calling their kids that like they’re school buddies and not their parents.

a friend calls everyone dude, but they’re also super normal about it and check in with people to make sure they’re comfortable with the term and/or whether they have another they’d prefer
