That is indeed interesting, but I sure don't care about your outdated overzealous opinion on "dude". It's gender neutral now, in case you haven't noticed.
Not everyone agrees, in case you haven't noticed. Just don't be an asshole when someone says they don't wanna be called that, it's really not hard at all
