Dude can definitely be gendered. If I said I saw a couple dudes walking down the street, would you not think I meant two men

That said, dude as an exclamation, imo, is ungendered. It's almost like saying woah for me.

If someone really got offended by that from me, I would probably just not talk to them anymore.

But I think the OP is talking about when someone says something like sup dude.
