[quote=Anonymous]Why make a mountain out of a mole hill? You don't have to get into the idea that he is jeopardizing his career, agency culture, etc. Just have a conversation with him. Ask him, not "confront him", why he refers to the women as ma'am but does not "sir" the men? He might not even be aware that he's doing it so strictly along gender lines, or he might have some answer. Listen to it. Then explain why the treatment that differs among genders is viewed as off putting by many and see what he has to say. This doesn't have to be a huge to-do, just a conversation.[/quote]
