A discussion on gendered language covers the replacement of "guys" with "folks" or "y'all" and "manpower" with "workforce." An anecdote is shared about an editor at PC World rejecting the word "representative" as sexist, insisting on "spokesperson" instead. The hosts conclude that these linguistic trends reflect a broader marginalization of straight white males on college campuses.
