Since I don't ever use the term "gal" then ***MY*** use of the term
"guy" is generic and refers to anyone who happens to read my post,
regardless of gender. My generation (which is the one after yours, I
think) has used the term to mean both male and female -- at least the
West coast version of my generation. I'm really sorry that the language
hasn't stayed static since the 40's but if it makes you feel more
"whatever" to poke fun at my use of the term "guy" to address everyone,

Trust me, I don't wish to be a gal either ! However, I am not male so
do not like generic 'guys' - there was a poll at one point a few years
ago and most women did not like guys either, so it's not just me. Now
it might just have been a Canadian survey, I don't recall.
I'm wondering now just how old you think I am !!!
