> Where I come from, everyone is “a guy”.

Gen Alpha (and younger Zoomers) are working hard to make "bro", "bruh" and "dude" gender-neutral[1] everywhere - and they are succeeding. In decade, those complaining about "you guys" will seem quaint.

My 14 year old daughter and her female friends call each other "bro" all the time.


> bruh

"breh" was and will be gender-neutral in south Louisiana long after everyone else has forgotten any debates around whether or not it actually is or whatever it was co-opted from

have a feeling hawaiians feel similarly about "brah"/"braddah"
