Well, you’re wrong and I don’t like you, but somehow I’m still happy that at least someone is acknowledging my gender. Even if they hate it, I’m just glad it’s not being dismissed as not my actual sex. I’m happier being told my gender is insane than that I have no gender. So thank you.
Any hurting of feelings spanning from not knowing what a word means is your own responsibility.
I nor anyone else can be responsible for problems in your understanding of modern English. Not in the slightest.
Simply, you have a misconception about the word, not an opinion.
You are, of course, welcome to come with any arbitrary definitions for common words, but doing so will just make communication with others more difficult. Still doesn’t make them “linguistic opinions”. It’s language, which evolves constantly, whether you acknowledge the fact or not.
That dude is a class a troll and/or batshit. Not sure which, but I’ll be taking the same action.
I’m not a dude, my gender is literally in my username.
Dude is not gender specific, you moron. Unisex terms are suitable for any type of sex. Including your insane bug-sex.

I’m not wrong though. “Dude” is now also used as a unisex term. It’s not the 60s anymore.
Unisex is an adjective indicating something is not sex-specific.
So in your opinion, you can hurt someone’s feelings and not apologise if that person doesn’t share your opinions on linguistics?

That’s a whole lot of words to say yes. Very inefficient.
The exact opposite. I reckon the issue is that you don’t understand what you read.
There’s nothing to apologise, when the hurt stems from not understanding what you read.
