Well that was embarrassing for all those involved.
If anyone was wondering I consider terms like bro to be gender neutral. Same goes for dude, that "dudette" **** is unnecessary and condescending. If someone's not into being called those it's fine because you can just fall back on calling them comrade, amigo, crony, fellow citizen of this capitalist globe, or another uncontested term of casual endearment.
