* Mates: This can be used for both genders, but often refers to close friends, including female friends.
More informal and specific:
* Chicks: This is quite common, but can sometimes be considered a bit crass.
* Bludgers: This is generally used for someone who is lazy or unemployed, but can sometimes be used jokingly for someone who is just having a good time.
* Strewth: This is an exclamation, similar to "Goodness me!" or "Wow!". It is not a direct slang term for girls, but it's definitely part of the Aussie lexicon.
Important Note:

* Some of these terms may be considered offensive in certain situations. It's always best to use respectful language and be mindful of the context.
