Girls who try so hard to be a lad. Why?

Yeah, dude is OUR word

Seriously, why do girls, whether it be on facebook, via text messaging or in person, now often use male sayings such as lad, man, dude, brother. How are these things male sayings? You don't have some sort of gender right over words, fool

Why do you use such sayings? Because I can, and they come naturally to me (my mum has actually lately been commenting whenever I say "man" which is a lot more than I thought! I just kind of subconsciously say "man, I'm tired!") it's called picking stuff up. I doubt many people set out to use words like "cool" all the time but lots of people just end up saying it because they pick it up.

Don't you think its manly to say ' hey man, i'll catch you later because im off out. Speak later dude' I get this off girls all the time on facebook and its an instant turn off. It usually leads to the instant 'remove from friends' moment! No.... ah, man! This must be why I'm still single

Women call each other their bitches or whatever else they say. If I were to say 'hey bitch, you okay?' you'd be livid with it! so why do you now all of a sudden think you're a bunch of Jessie J's who can 'do it like a dude'? It's something called joking, maybe you've heard of it? I have guy friends say it to me all the time, and vice versa.

Im not even trolling. I would never get with a woman who addressed me as lad, ever! just as I would expect a girl never to get with me for addressing her as bitch! Do you find "lad" offensive? I always find it quite nice, "lad" is always the kind of thing a dad says of course, the meaning has been skewed these days.

i'll call a girl gorgeous, i'll call her beautiful, i'll call her precious, or whatever else I want to call her but the moment she says dude or lad im just like o.O

Seriously, one of the most attractive things about a woman is when she acts feminine but all I see in Britain these days 9/10 is women who want to act like men. Constantly swear, act like lads, speak like lads. What is the world coming to? We got women acting like lads and then men like Alex Reid trying to be women. FML! Saying dude etc doesn't automatically mean you're trying to act like a lad or that you're not capable of being feminine

Im also not against gays or lesbians or bisexuals because thats natural. If you were a man then act like a man regardless of sexuality. If you are a woman then act like a woman regardless of sexuality. Oh, so you're just against tomboys and transsexuals then

Well done

i'll have you know i use the word "dude" largely thanks to my waynes world obsession.

Calm down, dude.

Oh no you di'ent!

Calm down, dude.

you're probably with a chav! jus saying

Think I just did, biatch

Ahh man, chill out.

I never use bitches. But I use man, dude, bruv and brother (to my brothers).

your brothers hate you!

what a lad!

you're probably with a chav! jus saying

Nice one, brotherrrrrrrrrrr!

God, you're an idiot.

I am neither a chav, nor attempting to be a lad.
Seriously, those are the last things people would call me XD
I'm "pretty/cute and emo" apparently, so there you are.

My posher friends when they are trying to mimick working class/slang-talking people haha.

Fair enough. East coast is better than west coast in every way anyway haha. Weather, music, people...

im an idiot? thats why my IQ is well over 150. nice one feminist supremacist.
