> Guys, this doesn't have to be so hard.

Please don’t assume our gender when preaching to us about inclusive language.

I debated calling this out and decided against because I knew you all would do it for me.

This, right here, is precisely why this issue is important. We have gendered pronouns that are so ingrained we try to pretend they're not gendered.

"All" is a _shorter_ and more inclusive substitute for "guys".

If you think this isn't important, just replace every occurance of "guys" that you see with "gals". If you're cool with that, good on you, but if you think for one second "oh don't say gals that might piss someone off" then, well, there's the kicker.

I thought using "guys" in a conversation about the use of the word "guys" would be obvious enough to register as tongue-in-cheek. But y'all went and proved me wrong!

IME, gals aren't making these mistakes, and also aren't doubling down when called on them.

Then you have limited E.
