[quote=Anonymous]OP here- wow, I just posted this! Ladies and gentlemen is completely fine. Female friends who address me and other female friends as "ladies" is totally fine. I think the problem is that it's often used in situations where I see a tinge of sexism anyway. "Ladies, could you get us some coffee?" kind of things. Or maybe because I am aware of the sexism that more subtly takes place in the workplace I see no need to differentiate between me and the men I work with- yes, we're different because of our genders, but when you start treating me differently when asking me about work stuff I wonder what else is going on.
