Hell no. Its a common word used here in Australia. Same as you guys say buddy or pal. It means friend and everybody uses the word, men and women alike. Its definately not offensive. |

simple answer is "NO". Mate is used when saying hello especially when you have forgotten their name. |

Mate means buddy, friend or pal. It's not an offensive term.
Now, if he'd called you a drongo, bogan or galah then that would be offensive. |

Considered yourself accepted as part of his crowd you lucky suck up yank! For a foreigner to be called a "mate" here is an honour.
Cheers, mate! |
