- conductr 4y agoThanks for the clarification. I've never heard or seen the word "laity" but have become wary of using gendered words on the internet so added "folks" without much thought. Sign of the times I suppose, hard to please everyone.
- UtopiaPunk 4y ago"Lay people" or "lay folks" would work. I only hear the word "laity" used in church (meaning the people who are not the clergy).
