Equivalent of comrade
Hello Friends,
In conversations, we hear 'comrade' thrown about. But is there some equivalent that can be used when women are talking? Something friendly that women call each other?
Thanks so much.

anonymous In conversations, we hear 'comrade' thrown about. Not in my conversations! In the UK at least, "comrade", as a way of addressing another person, is associated with communists, and has negative or comical connotations for many people.

There is no obvious reason why women can't use that word.
