Cunts

y'all

A lot of people use “folks” for plural.

I feel like “guys” is fairly un-gendered but people disagree with me. Personally, I haven’t used the word “guys” to refer to anything male in what seems like forever.

“Bud” and “fella” are good singulars.

In Australia the gender-neutral term is ‘Cunt’.

A wise man once said, "I'm a dude, he's a dudes, she's a dude. We're all dudes. Hey!"

Try the following for groups:

Hey folks, how's it going?

Listen up assholes!

Greetings, gumshoes

"Fuckers" is gender-neutral.

What's up, cunts

Works best if they're your friends and also you're in Australia

I’m AFAB enby, saying “you guys” and calling me “dude” is fine. Those to me aren’t gendered anymore. The people who get offended at general terms like these for groups of people need to touch grass.

But if you’re dead set on it, embrace y’all lol. Just don’t say it with a southern drawl and you’ll be fine. It’s a fantastic gender neutral term. You can also just train yourself not to add in the “you guys” to the “what’s up” phrase, and maybe just say “what’s up with you?” “What’s up with you all?” Etc.

"Foolish mortals" is my go-to gender neutral form of address

The simplest approach is to accept language is inherently gendered, and at a certain point it is exhausting to either take offense to everything or walk on eggshells.

I’m southern, so I use y’all almost exclusively lol

Mortals

Everypony.

An oft overlooked option that leaves no one indifferent.

Meatbags?

Fucker.

Meatbags.

All the alternatives make me cringe.

If someone is insulted that you use the term "guys" for a group, they're not worth being friends with. That's a lot of exhausting mental energy to deal with. Ignore 'em and move on.

Folks.

'round here "guys" has become gender neutral. But "folks" is my go-to.

I find "y'all" works pretty well, so does "folks" or even better "Fellow Workers."

I mean buddy is already gender neutral.

Fellow kids

Man, guys, buddy, etc

Just use them as gender neutral. Done.

I say y'all. It's inclusive.

"Citizens". It has the added benefit of implying that you're an authority figure and they're in trouble.

Y'all

Earthlings is the only valid option

Choom(s).

"My fellow great ape"

I use "folks" a lot. "Howdy folks." I am also a Tarheel so I can get away with y'all. And howdy.

Folks or Everyone tend to be my go to.

Cheese bags.

folks, y'all, youse

friends / friend

comrades / comrade

Guys is always fine as it refers to followers of Guy Faulks and pretty much anyone has probably considered blowing up parliament at some point.

In the words of Kel Mitchell:

I'm a dude, he's a dude, she's a dude, 'cause we're all dudes.
