I don't think that was intended as the diminutive term you seem to have interpreted it as.
"Guy" and "Girl" are commonly accepted 'casual' terms for men and women.
- JoeAltmaier 11y agoPedantic: Guy vs Gal, Boy vs Girl. I wonder: do they always come in pairs? Dude vs Dudettte?

- kybernetikos 11y agoThere's no reason why a man might not be allowed to have a different opinion to a woman about what is and is not degrading to women, in the same way that finding a black man who says that 'nigger' is a part of his identity that he embraces doesn't affect my view that it is a degrading slur.
