I think "dude" and "babe" (and "sweetie") can be viewed as "condescending, sarcastic, overly familiar, sexist"...et al. And possibly demeaning.

How very silly it's all become that there are those who would seek to become not only the "doctrine police" but the "speech police" as well.

It's 1984 all over again.

My suggestion to anyone that seeks to harass me because of the way I speak, find something more Christlike to do with your time.

And I am not a "he."

"She" then.

(No way I could have known that based on your name. "Full Court" suggests basketball, perhaps, which is a male sport only recently adapted to females.

Why do so many FR females select a male FR name? Isn't that sort of like wearing the trousers, "dressing like a male?" :>)

No one is harassing you about the way you speak Full Court. Please don't try to play the victim card again.
