Being enby, you guys feels weird when I’m included in it.

Being female, yes.

But I do delight in the awkwardness when they're called on it and try to backtrack and blush all the way down to their male genitalia.

Why? Guys is genderless imo and used that way all the time in life, this is such a weird take.

I guess some people are totally ok with exclusionary language and don't care about the people they affect with it. Carry on.

I know many female coworkers who also say guys in a genderless fashion, it's your choice to get upset about something so benign though.
