- LilBytes 5y agoYeah, I understand she's a woman. Just pointing out dude isn't sex specific. Or hasn't been in my experience.
- remram 5y agoAsk your male buddies "how many dudes" they've slept with, see how gender-neutral it really is in your circles.
- cybernautique 5y agoJust asked two of my male acquaintances and received an integer response. Of course, they're both bisexual, so I've no way of confirming the gender-type of these integers. Not sure I understand your point; are we bowling for pedantry?
- purerandomness 5y agoHow is this relevant to this thread? A commenter incorrectly assumed that a technical blog must, of course, be written by a guy. This was pointed out. Whether the word 'dude' is gender neutral or not is not helping.
