Using it even for groups of all women has always seemed 100% normal in the Northeast/New England; most of the concern about this I've noticed online seems to be coming from the Bay Area/Pacific NW where evidently those of us with this linguistic habit are weird
oh weird I thought it was a PNW thing (I’m PNW and picked it up in childhood)
