I find the translation "You girls have changed". So is fetelor here genetive in the sense of "You of the girls" ?

Nope, fetelor is vocative here.
Plural vocative can take the definite genitive-dative plural form (the -lor one) of the noun.
And the proper punctuation is actually: Voi, fetelor, v-aţi schimbat (the noun in vocative has to be separated from the rest of the sentence by commas).

Thank you, with that extra comma I probably could have figured it out myself. Did some Latin for a reason, about 35 years ago :-)

They're busting out the "vocative" case on us now?! Why are the course creators so angry at us now?
