[quote=Anonymous]I agree it is mildly sexist. Especially to refer to a group of people in a professional context who just happen to be women, but their gender is irrelevant to the task at hand. It serves to indicate that the speaker is very much seeing you as ladies, rather than simply as colleagues. I would find this more understandable is a female social situation, like an email to a group of moms having a night out being addressed as ladies. Even then, not the word I would use, sounds very Mad Men era. [/quote]
