    I had replaced man-made with people-crafted. Lol my mind went to "man-made" archeological discoveries. I do like artificial or synthetic better but I just found it funny that it popped into my head like that.
    I like the idea of gender neutral as I am non binary and have a strange relationship with gendered terms.

    Hi, Mam! I've heard you saying 'guys", is it not sexist language? Need clarification, please. Thank you!

      Hi! Thanks for viewing the lesson. "Guy" carries plenty of meanings such as a man, fellow, person or individual. In plural form, see meaning 1b of Merriam Webster--"it refers to the members of a group regardless of sex," thus can be used to address a group of people whether male or female.

      @@ProfJocelynGagalang True, for years the word “guys” was used in addressing mixed members of a group regardless of sex but as gender norms evolve, the appropriateness of the word “guys” comes into question. In my part, every time I heard being called ‘guys” I felt excluded. Thank you anyway for your reply. God bless!
