It's gender neutral. That's why they use it. And they spell it "folx." To be edgy and cool. Y'all's next.

"People" as "ppl" is lazy spelling. "Folks" as "folx" is, for some reason, considered even more gender neutral. As the gentleman from California says, folks/folx is a lot more colloquial than people.
