I tend to walk into a room full of men and say "hey gals."

They're usually thrilled to be called gals, since "gals" is the generic term for all human beings.

Thanks smartass.

I would assume its a location type thing maybe? Perhaps along the same lines as Coke, Soda, Pop, etc.

I dunno, i've never actually been around someone that would actually make some kind of issue out of it. Congratulations.

Prostitution is legal in Las Vegas.

Because you typed to me about never having been around people who have an issue with a particular thing. As if THAT is the sole determinant of what you deem to be right or wrong.

I said I have never been around anyone that actually made an issue out of calling a group of people "guys". I didn't know this was a right and wrong thing.

You seem to be having a really hard time understanding that there are people in this thread who disagree with you are FROM THE SOUTH. Sheesh. It's really not that hard to grasp. I will lay it out for you:

I am from the South. Lived here forever. I went to undergrad at a large conservative PWI Southern university. I have close friends in NPHC, IFC, and NPC sororities and fraternities. I have NEVER heard anyone, jokingly or seriously, use the word "sorostitute" IRL. I find the word offensive and it amazes me that it is a term that people would use regularly, especially sorority women.

He was talking about using "guys."

I initially thought he was talking about "sorostitute" too because, although he quoted me, his post seemed to apply "across the board."

I don't know what IRL means.

Thanks. Sorry you've never heard the term.

IRL = in real life.

Sorostitute is more offensive, in my opinion, than "frat boy".

Yet the troops didn't swarm in on this one like they do whenever someone types "frat" or "frat boy" on here.
