Hey ladies - does it ever bother you when guys address you as "man" or "dude"? As in, "Hey man, this is fun" or "Dude, you rock."

Guys, do you ever do this? And out of curiosity, has a girl ever addressed you with a feminine term, like "Hey, girl"?
 
Im pretty sure ive never addressed a girl that way.. Cept my sister that is, i call her dude all the time. That, and 'home-slice'. :P

yeah that bothers me too lol!! and I do say HEY GURL HEY jus playin around...mostly w my gay guy friends but still lol...
 
I do it all the time....lol...I even call my mom dude...and she gets pissed and makes me restart the conversation its annoying...lol....but i call everyone dude....
 
Oh man, a guy who called me "Dude" would totally and completely annoy me. I mean, if he can't take the extra 1/8 of a second of brainpower to think enough to address me by some form of a feminine pronoun... I would interpret it as either laziness or just plain ignorance...

I think it's also because I'm a little older--"back in my day" we didn't call everyone "dude" and it's just one of those slang terms I never picked up on. My "homegirls" and I do not call each other homegirls, dudes, or any of that... if I use those terms it's just as the premise of a joke. I see the constant use of "dude" as a "young" thing... not that there's anything wrong with it (but yes, I do have a problem with calling girls "dude"--just seems disrespectful to me--and I figure God created feminine nouns and pronouns for a reason) but I wouldn't be dating anyone who called me, my friends, or parents by that term.

Calling a woman "dude" is, in my mind, the equivalent of calling a straight man gay.

Oh, just a hint of advice for all the "dudesters" out there--when interviewing for a JOB, do NOT go in and call your potential boss "dude". Sorry to slip in the old geezer advice...

The rare exception would be something such as what Shawny Boy pointed out--if it were an accepted term of endearment between a close friend or family member, I could handle that.
 
i dont like being called dude.. ..... OR man........ its irritating.
 
come on dudes lighten up man


yes someone had to say it!


anyway, i call girls mate sometimes, but thats not so weird here. girls call me mate too.
 
It doesn't bother me from my guy friends. They can call me 'dude' and 'man' in that slangy sense. But if someone who was trying to date me ever called me that... I think I'd probably call him "girl" in return until he learned his lesson
 
Ohhhhh dude, man and even babe annoy me to no end!!!!.............*shudder/cringe/puke*
 
I just can't stand that word babe........arghhhhhh....I dunno why, it just sounds cheesy and corny ta me......:p :p
