i'd have to agree. i tend to say "guys" for virtually everyone. sometimes i'll say "hey girls", but more often then not, i say guys.
: I generally prefer 'Hey Youse Guys' said in a really bad new york accent.
: But on the real tip: I stick with Hey Guys...it's pretty much an androgynous(sic) term at this point.
: ~F~
: : hey gurls, just wondered if you could give me your heads up on this. How would you refer to a group of gurls, or a mixed group of people, the way you would if you referred to a bunch of guys as 'guys'? Curious. I often see a group of male friends call each other 'guys', but i do not know the equivalent for gurls or for a mixed group. Anyone know? the other day i may have solved this. i witnessed three gurls hanging out together and when they left where they had been, i heard one of them say, "hey, GUYS, let's leave". do you gurls call each other GUYS? Help me.
