No worries, I also assumed the worst and that’s my bad. I’m just too used to seeing people whose default response to being challenged on their use of “dude” or “man” is to dig their heels in and argue about it.
I definitely don’t support saying something like “that’s a dude” when referring to a woman and won’t argue that it’s never offensive. I just think it’s a fun word non-males shouldn’t be denied.
