Language is chabgeable. I always say "guys" for mixed groups. Seems like some more people agree or don't care.

I don't mostly, I just wanted to make conversation. As I mentioned earlier, I did the mental gymnastics and substituted "person" for "guy" in my head when reading.

It definately evolves, over time. I speak English but literally can't understand Old English (as an example).
My language doesn't segregate between an Uncle (for example) on my Father's side, vs. on my Mother's side, while some other languages do exactly that, they have two different words depending on which Uncle you're talking about.
Heck, we even use the same vowels but pronounce them differently in different cultures. English pronouces the vowel "I" as "eye", while (for example) with Persian/Farsi they pronounce the vowel "I" as if its an "E". Americans say "Eye-ran" for Iran, where Persians say "Eee-ron" for Iran.
Its important for Humanity to be able to speak to each other, to resolve issues and build a better social World habitat. Kind of hard when people manipulate the languages away from what they are, but then again that Humanity, never 100% perfect.
Thanks for writing this long post but I'm not really going to read it. Not interested in a side trackwd conversation about a non-issue.

I mean, it's not that long, I'm just quoting what you said before responding to it is all.
And kind of funny, considering you're here on Lemmy to read other people's comments.
And I really truly feel that Humanity needs to be able to talk to each other, and if they can't agree on common wording conventions it makes it that much harder to do. So I think it actually is something of an issue, even if just a minor one.
Overall, too bad, thought we were having a good/friendly conversation.
Woop anorher long one! Noping out of here.
Woop anorher long one!
Four paragraphs, three out of four of them are one sentence long, and the fourth one is two sentences long. That's long to you? Really?
Noping out of here.
No need to run. It's just an Internet conversation.
Honestly, why are you even on Lemmy then, where there's a lot of comments that are longer than that last one I just did?
I'm getting the feeling at this point that you're the type of person who just scrolls down to the bottom of a EULA/TOS and just hits the 'accept' button, without reading.
Oh no another long one! This time I only skimmed through the first sentence.
Wait. You don’t do that also? 😆
Always read the fine print, or don't bitch and moan about being f'd over.
