When my daughter was home visiting from college a few years ago, she started addressing my wife and I as "you all".
She had never used that term before she went away to college so I asked about it.
At the time, she was the captain of the college swim team (all women) and she explained that when she spoke to the team, she had found that "guys", "girls" and "women" all resulted in pushback from one or more team members. "You-all" offended no one, apparently.
