[@moss.miller]

Personally (trans), I thought it was nice to hear you explicitly mention that you were being mindful of the language you use as a content creator. I dont think saying "you guys" is the most aggregious example of unnecessary gendering, but the good energy radiated from the people who do care enough to use inclusive language is always appreciated. Like, even if I am not personally bothered by it, it just feels nice to be considered. I wasn't one of the comments (if there were some) that asked you to change your language, but thank you anyway for talking about it.

[@francescalander3352]

This is such a great look - it's so cute! That Lisa Eldridge Foundation is so *chefs kiss*. Also, in regards to gender neutral language, I am queer and have worked in queer spaces. And some people use 'guys', language changes over time and can be made more neutral. However, I love to use 'party people'. It's fun. And people can pick their party (are you a slumber party person? Political party? Party of 1? Tea party?).

"best work" or not, that double wing looks CUUUUTE on you Kackie!! Seriously, what a fortuitous fail.

Also, side note: I consider "you guys" to be gender neutral and use it all the time in casual convo so I wouldn't worry to much about it. Some things matter more to some people, but I don't think "guys" hurts anyone rather than them being concerned about inclusion in word choice :/

[@kathleenlovito4386]

In college our RAs were taught to use “y’all” as a gender neutral option and it’s stuck with me since then! I find it as easy and natural to say as “you guys” and have noticed plenty of others use it in both casual and professional settings, so it seems generally accepted 🤷‍♀️

Kaja's concealer is truly beautiful. it's almost incongruent: lightweight but pigmented, easy to blend but has medium coverage, emollient but not dewy, can slightly settle in the fine lines but you can't really see it, can be used as sheer foundation but it's pigmented. this is what people want the Glossier skin tint (I use that too) to be. biochemically, it behaves the same way without being overly dewy, while offering more coverage. ps. "guy → s ←" and "dude" are culturally gender neutral. in the East and West coast saying "bro" is weird and very contrived; outside of KZbin actually. it's almost always "dude" and it's for all genders.

But we have words like fireman, postman, policeman or mankind that people use to refer to both men and women.

[@frumtheground]

Yeah "guys" is usually a generalized word for a group. It's kind of like in Spanish, if you're referring to a group of people, the default is the masculine "nos" regardless if you're referring to a group of men or a group of men and women and all in between, but no feminine nouns are used that way.

Just my little armchair diagnosis if you're interested.

I don't want to start a debate lol but I think that makes more sense since your issues were a whole month before getting covid.
