I think you are correct but I hear it in Texas all the time where I used to hear yall. I think it has come from the north east and began as youse guys. (How they ever started saying youse guys instead of the correct term, yall, Ill never understand.) >>/smirk>/// I wonder if the youse is an attempt to pluralize you, as in adding an s.
I also find it annoying, so I used to reply, "Do I look like a man to you ?", but my family has gotten tired of my smart remarks, so I stopped.
I still think it, though.
Yes, I think I have pointed out (jokingly of course) that I was not a guy. It’s just become of those linguistic habits that people pick up from each other. At least I don’t hear anyone say “exactly” after every comment, like a few years ago. There is one woman that when we saw her coming we would say “here comes exactly”.
