I dunno, I like 'dudette'. It's a fun and silly word.

Dudette is a silly word. But its sole existence is to make dude gendered.

Or just because it was a joke in some shitty comedy.

I've only ever heard 'Dude' used about men. So I can not attest to it's gender neutrality.

You need to use it in a gender neutral way, my dude.

I'm not a native english speaker. "Dude" isn't part of my general vocabulary, with the exception of internet forums.
