my mom walked up to the cash registers (no line) at a food place with me and asked "which of you guys is taking orders" and both cashiers were women

mh, Saturday, 2 December 2017 00:22 (six years ago) link

“Guys” is not a gendered term anymore. “You guys” is always preferable to “you women.”

New Jersey (treeship 2), Saturday, 2 December 2017 00:24 (six years ago) link

well Midwestern normies were leading the charge on that one for the last couple decades

Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, 2 December 2017 00:26 (six years ago) link

When I was a teacher someone observing me said I shouldn’t call the class “guys” as in “alright guys, let’s get started” because it marginalized the girls. I did not take this criticism seriously.

New Jersey (treeship 2), Saturday, 2 December 2017 00:26 (six years ago) link

Like it was English class the girls were the only ones who participated anyway. I think they knew it wasn’t bro hour.

New Jersey (treeship 2), Saturday, 2 December 2017 00:27 (six years ago) link

the vosotros of you guys should be youse guys

Philip Nunez, Saturday, 2 December 2017 00:27 (six years ago) link

Not the only ones but you know—hyperbole. There were some excellent male students in that class.
