PPSS ...and there's no reason to put it in parentheses, unless you're trying to say that gals and guys aren't equal....and I know that even if you think that, you are smart enough not to say it.

Actually, the parentheses are used correctly to denote an insincere politically correct phrase that is only inserted to appease certain sentimentalities who feel incorrectly that 'guys' is an exclusively masculine term. But 'gals' would be correct if it were needed.

Is this far enough off topic for you?
