Yea, I write "guys" a lot. I'm aware of it. And I'm looking to improve.

Some other friends use geeks to stay gender neutral. Any other suggestions?

Eugen @gargron@mastodon.social

@maloki folks. peeps

Del @WelshPixie@mastodon.social

@Gargron @maloki I struggle with this too. I'm getting better at it but still have to occasionally check myself, and I have a bad habit of saying things like 'hey man' regardless of who I'm talking to. Trying to stop that too. I go to folks, peeps, people, friends, or fart-faces. :D

@cassolotl @WelshPixie @gargron @maloki y'all!

Cas @cassolotl@cybre.space

@schlink @WelshPixie @gargron @maloki Oh yeah! Or the slightly more northern-English "youse"!

Hadn't heard that for a while- I think some Scouse friends used the term..

I tend to use the more Germanic "folk" for describing any mixed gender group of people (as its perhaps more immediately understood across EU and USA) for some reason I regularly and routinely get mistaken for a German online anyway 😁

@vfrmedia @schlink @WelshPixie @gargron @maloki Yeah, "youse" is grammatically a little different than "folk(s)", and also *very* Scouse-specific!
