[quote=Anonymous]I'm 45 and use ma'am and sir when out in public and use it as a sincere form of respect and gratitude. I say, "thank you very much, sir!" to the helpful and kind cashier, or a friendly, "Good Morning, Ma'am" to the pharmacy clerk. I make no apologies for my polite style and good manners. By the way, I'm a new substitute teacher. I'm (maybe too easily) impressed by the very few boys (and it's only ever boys) who almost reflexively call me ma'am in the classroom. You can tell this is how they are raised - just instinctively polite and respectful. Any coincidence that they are usually my most engaged and top students?[/quote]
