Funny, here in coastal socal lately I have been hearing women refer to each other as "dude" or "bro" or "man" sometimes even more often than I hear men do it (And I have yet to see any guys get called out or corrected for saying "dude" or even "man" casually to a woman. Though that this is somewhat contextual) Further, I think everyone should give good pause and thought as to whether or not they really want "west coast, social justice types" to dictate acceptable mores
