Is it OK to Say "Hey Guys"?

quote:

In my reporting I heard from several people who said that the word is particularly troubling for trans and gender-nonconforming people. “As a transgender woman, I consciously began trying to stop using guys some years ago,” says Brad Ward, a college counselor at a high school in Atherton, California. She added, “When I’m included with a group that is called guys, there’s some pain, since it takes me back to my male days in a way that I’d rather not go.”


Words are literally causing pain and transporting the mentally diseased to places they don't want to go.

Think about what you say before you say it, shitlords.

I use “guys” in a unisex manner anyway, but that is fricking retarded.

I do too because the female equivalent is "gals" which sounds awkward.

That said, these people are fricking stupid.

Who made the rule that all of society has to bend every time one leftist fakes offense?

like the bitch who was offended by the "act like a lady" sign in the school in Houston - since she isnt one she shouldn't mind someone telling her to go eat a dick

You guys was big in NOVA when I was there. Within a year, I was saying it for the next 14 years. No biggie.

Guy at work told me he saw this online

Well you're obviously triggered, but is it from being called a snowflake or a shitlord?

I don’t think I’ve ever said the word “gals” in my life. Sounds like a yankee term like soda or crayfish

The South has been early adopters on this pc movement. Unintentionally I'm sure.

Bartender at Courtyard just called me 'babe' and I was taken back.

Can't believe Scott lets them talk that way to customers.

Up here we call them "dames" or "dolls".

I used "guys" when I was talking to a high school class last spring.

I got a ton of eye rolls on that one.

This younger generation is from a different planet than me.

I work with all women and still use “guys”. It’s just my natural word for trying to call attention to a group of people.
