Just like when I call everyone "bro" or "dude" or something along those lines, people always get upset because they think I'm assuming their gender but I almost always use them as gender neutral terms
I wanna make this announcement because I'm afraid I'll offend or upset someone by calling them 'hon', 'bestie', 'boo', 'babe', or 'bitch' because I can't talk straight. Anything I say like 'boo' or 'babe' is absolutely platonic and 'bitch' is hardly ever meant as an insult. Confused with my life
