The "Guys is/isn't gender neutral" shit is soooo fucking stupid dude. Like it really goes to show why you should try to interact with people irl instead of spending your life in a goon crypt.
If you think a word is gender neutral, but the person you're talking to dislikes hearing it, you shouldn't say it to them. On the flipside, if you think a word is fine to say and whoever you're talking to agrees, then you can continue. That goes for "guy", "dude", "bro", and literally all other words. If you get all pissy about how "oh in MY opinion it's gender neutral" that's fucked, and if the other person gets all pissy about "how DARE you call me that" when you were just using a pretty commonly accepted meaning that's *also* fucked, be considerate to each other and nothing goes wrong.

This is also my take with like "afab transfems" or "bi lesbians" or whatever the fuck. Like, irl literally no one cares.
