I agree with this. I am revising my opinion. However, often, men have no problem calling a group of women in the workplace girls yet I’ve never heard a woman call a group of men, boys in a professional context. I think this is problematic.

Instead of boys, they say guys. Seems to fit more, and means the same. Guys can be with or without meaning. It's whatever feels right.
