Answer 2

Yes, probably buddy or even brother!  I get called 'mate' by someone who is doing building work nearby, even though I'm a fairly mature female.

They use that term everywhere and honestly, it doesn't mean much :P

Just the same as saying something like "see you later dude" or "see you later buddy"
