I'm from New Jersey and have never heard anyone unironically say "youse guys". Side note we also don't call it "Joisey".
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.
Should be fine π
as a trans person, I'm not offended by y'all in the slightest
This statement has strong Bilbo " I like less than half of you as well as you deserve" energy
(No hate, it just struck me as funny)
I lowkey always found that to be a southern type of insult, I could hear Steve Spurrier saying it
Iβm from Australia and Iβve started calling all groups of people yall because itβs gender neutralβ¦ 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

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

I call everyone brah π€

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.
Y'all = you all, which is gender neutral.
Also that map is missing the Chicagoland y'all exclave.
I don't think "Y'all" would be problematic. But I also offer "You peeps", I enjoy that one more in day to day conversation.
