Is it weird to use “bro” when talking to a women? I always find my self wanting to send something like “bro, can’t believe xyz happened” before remembering I’m talking to a woman and just going silent and saying nothing instead.

I think it depends. Id never call a trans woman bro unless she signed off on it for instance

...you can't just not say 'bro'? like i wouldn't even care if someone said bro at me but it's weirder that you can't form a sentence without it lol

It’s not that I can’t form a sentence without it, but rather like a recoil when I choose to not use it. I end throwing the whole sentence away, because bro means something when I say it to my friends that isn’t necessary captured by other words like hey. The only words I can think of that convey something similar are dude and “girl”, but I don’t think I can use girl either.
