In the second panel, the protagonist is in a supermarket and the cashier says “Hey man.” In the third panel, the protagonist is on a train and someone on the phone says “Hello, sir.” In the fourth panel, the protagonist enters an apartment and says “I’ home.” and is welcomed by a woman who rushes towards her and says “THERE she is!” The two of them hug in the fifth panel, while the woman says “How’s my beautiful girlfriend doing??”

The interesting exception is the term “man” itself which is a gender neutral root word. At some point after the adoption of Christianity people dropped the “were” prefix and just started assuming if you were talking about someone they had to be male unless otherwise stated.
