>Don’t do the “guys and girls” thing >either, which is marginally better but >still makes it feel like an afterthought. >Try: “folks”, “y’all”, “everyone”, >“team”, “channel”, or just “awesome >people”. Yall is too ghetto Team is too corporate Awesome people diminishes the value of the word awesome and also too long Everyone would mean you're addressing everyone who can hear you say it... Folks is too official. Why not just people? Also, girls/women even say dude and guys to each other. Would seem weird to not say it that way after they say it themselves. If someone acts too PC, people stop hanging around them.
