Dont they like each other like that? Ive never heard any girls really call each other sis and shit like that the same way we call each other bro you know what I mean.

they dont seem to have a term of endearment towards each other. Maybe babe, but thats not as common as us calling each other bro ynahmean bros?

There are some, but I think that it largely depends on what region you live in; my sisters and I don't use them, really.

Girls have "sis". Although I've not heard anyone call each other bro or sis in real life.

Because unlike "the boys", the girls just talk shit about eachother behind eachothers backs.

I think media tends to go for "girlfriend", with exaggerated excitement?

One of my friends calls her best female friend "sissy." In a positive way. Some girls also use bro a lot too.

Can confirm, and the latter is often with a friendly tone rather than an outright insult.

They have plenty of words like that (including girl, bitch, slut), but it's not like "bro" is the only one of its type either. And if you're going with "dude" for guys, you can always say "dudette" for chicks.

The kinda bigger thing is they don't have a term like "guy". Chick -- which seems like the most natural 1:1 -- can have an offensive connotation. Girl is just the equivalent of boy, woman is the equivalent of man, etc.

I still use "dude" regardless of gender. Heck, I use it for inanimate objects as well.
