[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't read the whole thread, just some. I have been out of the military for 22 years, and I still sometimes slip into Sir/Ma'am. That respect is beaten in to you from before the moment you get off the bus at basic. I don't think he means anything by it, any more than opening a door for a woman would be meant as anything more than being polite. If it really bothers you, ask him about it. Ask him why he does it. Then maybe you can find a beef with his motive, but not on generalizations. [/quote] The difference is, you use both sir and ma'am. You don't call every man by their first name and every woman ma'am. All the time. [/quote]
