If anyone can find more pixels for me i would appreciate it.
Thanks y'all.
Where does this put Scott the Woz?
I'll throw in "folks" as another gender neutral option. I say "you folks" all the time, especially in professional contexts. I'm not from the South, but I have family there so y'all is a part of my vocabulary. I use it in more informal situations pretty commonly.
I'm from New Jersey and have never heard anyone unironically say "youse guys". Side note we also don't call it "Joisey".

I’m from Australia and I’ve started calling all groups of people yall because it’s gender neutral… very unaustralian term, and I love so much the irony of iconic southern terms being used to support trans activism
I'm German and I use y'all all the time when speaking English. it's funny, most of my English is from the internet so it's the most crazy mix of english
Why bother with importing y'all when we already have yous (or youse depending on how you want to spell it)? Or you could just treat 'you guys' as gender neutral, it effectively is these days with how people use it.
As an Australian, why bother importing "y'all" when everyone is already "mate"?
I was going to say something similar, but thinking everyone is "cunt".
Yes, it's gender neutral.

This needs a line going up the Appalachians for the "You-uns" belt.
And somewhere there's "yinz".
I was just about to point out that the map is missing a small "yinz" enclave around Pittsburgh/Johnstown

Y'all = you all, which is gender neutral.
Also that map is missing the Chicagoland y'all exclave.
Only if you man in it a "you people" kind of way - like y'all need to stay with your own kind- or something like that.
