minus-squareipkpjersi@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down2·edit-224 hours ago As for “y’all” or “you all”, I don’t see how it could possibly be interpreted as offensive to any gender. I think “we don’t take kindly to y’all” to a trans person would likely be offensive. Beyond that though, you’re probably okay.
