I'm a dude, he's a dude, she's a dude, 'cause we're all dudes, hey!

Guys being dudes is pretty obviously gendered. As a woman i dont like girls doing fun stuff being turned male. Sexism is not fun.

I’m OP and a woman, and I agree, sexism is not fun. But this example isn’t the hill to die on imo. Referring to a group of mixed gendered people as “guys” “dudes” or “bros” isn’t remotely sexist or offensive to me. What would you prefer, “guys and gals”, “dudes and dudettes”? That’s condescending af.

I thought it was a teenaged boy. Either way, it’s in the right spirit and the mod hasn’t made any posting rules to say only outwardly passing men count as just guys being dudes.
